brake pads for StingSport

[bstrachan]

Anyone have a source for brake pads for an '06 StingSport? The factory-installed pads are made by SBS, a Danish company that is pretty well unknown in the western US. The SBS part number is 105HF.

Thanks. Never thought of Ebay. This is about 1/4 the price the distributor gets, if they have them at all.

Yup -- wish I would've taken my own advice before replacing the pads at my annual a few months back

Ordered the pads.... on their way from Norway

Do you fly an SS? I've had some issues contacting SportAir lately... wondering if it's just me....

I'm one model newer than you -- Sting S3.

I'm guessing that they were on skeleton staff in the office during Sun-n-Fun and Aero Friedrichshafen but should be at full office strength this week. They uploaded pictures on the Facebook page yesterday unloading a Sirius so looks like business as usual.

You (we) can also purchase our Sting brake pads from any Harley Davidson Motorcycle dealer.

Just ask the parts person for PN 1720-0077, GMA "F" pads for Model "F" calipers. Cost is about $45 to $60 for a set of four, depending upon which Hog dealer you select.

Side note: I'm on my third set of pads in 1,500 hours--or about 500 hours per set, depending how you are on the brakes, I guess...

Good info. Thanks.
