Stock 650 SS here, good strong brakes. Can't say what the linings are, except that they are new, it came to me this way, lots of new parts on it.
I have a new twin leader Commando type that could be fitted to the bike, however I suspect it would be a cosmetic upgrade but a functional downgrade, so the stock single leader will stay.
I did change to a Newby belt drive mainly because I could not get the stock clutch to hold, secondarily to get away from the leaky tin cover problem. Two problems cured with one change, but it was close to $1000 CDN with shipping.
Newby's belt drives also include his terrific dry clutch, a lightweight thing of beauty that works as good as it looks.
