Are steel braided brake lines a must have for your vfr?

    I recently bought my vfr700. While taking the front wheel off one of the brake pads just disintegrated lol. Any suggestions on good pads for cheap?
    I was going to go with galfer but 80 bucks is steep. I would prefer them to be less dusty , since I'll be cleaning the "Crustoleum" off the wheels that had built up for decades!
    Thanks for reading

    I can't rememeber exactly what compound (prob the organic), but the Galfer pads on my RC26 are the messiest brake pads I've ever used. There is a set of EBC HH pads sitting on my bench waiting to be swapped in.
