AP RACING Racing sintered Front/Rear Brake Pads for KAWASAKI KDX, KX 80, 100, 125, 250 and SUZUKI RM 80, 85 1982-2004

The AP RACING LMP144ORR set of brake pads is designed for KAWASAKI KDX 125, KX 80, KX 100, KX 125, KX 250 and SUZUKI RM 80, RM 85 from 1982 to 2004. The pads clamp the disc to slow the bike down. Off-road, they work in mud, water and sand, which wear them quickly: pads in good condition keep the braking powerful and easy to modulate.

Specifications

• Brand: AP RACING
• Manufacturer part number: LMP144ORR
• EAN code: 5700757009817
• Compound: sintered metal
• Engine: 2-stroke

When to replace it?

• Friction material worn below the minimum thickness in the manual (often 1 to 2 mm), or wear groove gone.
• Metallic grinding noise when braking.
• Lever or pedal going further, brakes with less bite.

Check pad thickness before every ride, especially in muddy conditions. Never wait for metal-to-metal contact: it scores the disc within a few stops.

Fitting tips

1. Push the caliper pistons back while keeping an eye on the brake fluid level in the reservoir, which will rise.
2. Clean the caliper and the pad pin, and replace the pin if it's marked.
3. Fit the pads with their spring or clip, the right way round, then pump the lever or pedal until you get normal travel back.
4. Check the condition of the disc: a disc that's too thin or warped wears out new pads.
5. Bed in the pads with a dozen progressive stops before riding hard.

Why AP RACING?

AP Racing's LMP motorcycle pads are made in Europe, and the brand has undertaken ECE R90 homologation of all its friction materials that can be used on the road. For off-road, there's a sintered compound built to last in abrasive conditions and a sintered Racing compound for competition, with more bite and a good feel at the lever.

Frequently asked questions

Sintered or organic?
Sintered (metallic) pads last longer and stay effective in mud and water: they're the benchmark for motocross and enduro. Organic pads are gentler on the disc and bite well from cold.

Should both sides be changed?
Always replace the complete set for a given caliper, and check the disc while you're at it.
