Sprint Manufacturing do pads for the Alcons...if you Tokico's then you could get them just about anywhere ?

Hi,

Assuming the Triumph Alcon 6-pots, then most dealers have them listed under the Daytona Super III (rather than the Daytona 1200SE, etc..). The Triumph reference is A9950028.

Most shops can order the pads in, and perhaps EBC is the most readily available? Some reference numbers for you are: EBC FA190; Vesrah VD258; Ferodo FBD864; SBS 683.

Hope this help? (If you get really stuck, then let me know as I have a couple of new spare sets for my future needs - A3 Tolworth Tower).

Ciao,
Geoff

Used them a couple of times, perfectly good service.

I certainly use organic pads as you get more feel with them and also they don`t chew your disc`s anywhere near as hard so they last longer as well.

If you don't run the bike hard up to 7/10th, then go with organic. It you run the bike for what it's worth, get the HH pads. The HH's require more of a squeeze when cold, but less of a squeeze once heated up...because the organics just heat up or glaze over and fade despite a harder squeeze.
