I was running stock before and I'm happy with the new set up. I only did the front.
May do the rear in the future, but they are low priority on the list.
I got the cheapest EBC rotors, the EBC contour stainless steel (not floating ones) on the front, and EBC FA197HH sintered pads on the front and rear. I kept the stock rotor on the rear, it's still got tons of meat left. I'm still breaking em in, so I haven't done hard braking with em, but having had the sintered EBC pads on my front before with Galfer SS lines made the brakes feel amazing.

Personally I like having the Galfer SS lines with ebc sintered rear, but I will say they make the rear really sensitive and I can see how if one doesn't practice braking with em they can easily lock the rear up.

How do you like the full floating ones? I use my 250 primarily for city riding and didn't want to drop $300+ on the full floating ones.
