FA13 are high-quality, organic kevlar-based brake pads designed for vintage and classic motorcycles, particularly 1970s Honda models.
They offer excellent braking modulation, low rotor wear, and are ideal for street riding, making them a popular, long-lasting, and reliable OEM replacement.
Key Features and Benefits
* Material: Aramid fiber-based (Kevlar) organic compound.
* Compatibility: Widely used for older, smaller, and mid-sized motorcycles, such as the EBC Brake Pads - FA13 for 1971-1978 Honda CB Motorcycles.
* Performance: Known for "superb modulation" and providing a smooth, progressive feel rather than a "grabby" response.
* Rotor Friendly: Softer compound reduces wear on older brake discs.
* Design: Feature expansion grooves to reduce noise and prevent cracking, often with Nucap NRS hook retention system to prevent de-bonding.
* Safety: ECE R 90 approved and TUV tested.

Read what EBC has to say about it's High Performance Organic Series Brakes:
"Made in our own factory in Bristol, England, the EBC Kevlar® series has now been renamed NAO series or Non-Asbestos Organic, although we still use the famous Dupont Kevlar® fibre in conjunction with other high tech fibres that have come on the market. The NAO series are a superb all round value-for-money replacement for all levels of motorcycle and are still extremely popular with many riders who prefer the "feel" of organic pads. NAO series are fully TUV tested and KBA certified and conform to the new ECE R90 brake regulations which are about to storm the European market. EBC is at the forefront of this technology and will be the first on the market to offer Reg. 90 approved pads and packaging. Most EBC organic pads have expansion grooves which reduce noise and prevent cracking. The aramid fibre compound with non-ferrous particles helps to prevent surface "scorching" under load."
