Lyndall Z-Plus: The Original High-Performance Carbon-Aramid Brake Pad

For over twenty years, the Lyndall Brakes Z-Plus Front / Rear Brake Pads have been the go-to upgrade for Harley-Davidson enthusiasts who demand more from their braking system. Specifically engineered for the 2000–2007 era of Twin Cam motorcycles, the Z-Plus series was designed to solve the inherent flaws of factory-installed pads. If you are tired of the “mushy” lever feel, the aggressive black dust on your white-walls, or the embarrassing squeal at every stoplight, the Z-Plus Carbon-Aramid matrix is the high-performance solution you’ve been looking for.

Carbon-Aramid Technology: Better Bite, Less Mess

The secret to the Z-Plus series is its unique Carbon-Aramid friction material. By blending high-strength aramid fibers (the same material used in ballistic vests) with a specialized carbon matrix, Lyndall has created a pad that offers a 20% increase in stopping power over OEM organic pads. Unlike sintered pads that rely on metal-on-metal friction, the Z-Plus creates a high-friction “film” on the rotor. This results in a smoother, more progressive initial bite and shorter stopping distances. Best of all, because the compound contains no ferrous metal, the dust it produces is nearly invisible and non-corrosive, meaning it won’t pit your chrome or stick to your powder-coated wheels.

The Quietest Ride on the Road

Brake noise is often the result of high-frequency harmonics generated by the rigid metal backing and harsh friction materials of standard pads. Lyndall Z-Plus pads are engineered with natural damping properties. The Carbon-Aramid structure absorbs the micro-vibrations that cause brake howl and “turkey warble,” providing near-silent operation even under heavy use. For the rider who wants to hear their exhaust and the wind—not their brakes—the Z-Plus is the undisputed choice for a refined, premium riding experience.

Maximum Rotor Protection

Whether you are running stock stainless rotors or high-end polished aftermarket discs, the Z-Plus treats your hardware with respect. Standard sintered pads are often harder than the rotors they press against, leading to deep grooves, scoring, and premature thinning of the disc. Lyndall Z-Plus pads are designed to be “rotor-friendly.” They run significantly cooler than metallic pads, preventing heat-warping and ensuring that your rotors maintain a smooth, mirror-like finish for the life of the motorcycle. This can save you hundreds of dollars in replacement costs over the long term.

Precision Fitment & Versatility

These pads are a direct-fit replacement for Harley-Davidson OEM Part Number 44082-00. During the 2000–2007 period, Harley-Davidson used this specific caliper design across almost their entire lineup, making these pads incredibly versatile:

• Touring Models (2000–2007): Fits Road King, Electra Glide, Street Glide, and Road Glide (Front & Rear).
• Softail Models (2000–2007): Fits Heritage, Fat Boy, Night Train, and Deuce (Front & Rear).
• Dyna Models (2000–2007): Fits Low Rider, Wide Glide, and Super Glide Custom.
• Sportster (2000–2003): Fits all XL 883 and 1200 models.
• V-Rod (2002–2005): Fits early VRSC models with standard calipers.

Installation & Bed-In Procedure

To get the most out of your Lyndall Z-Plus pads, it is critical to start with a clean surface. We recommend cleaning your rotors with a dedicated brake cleaner and a light abrasive pad to remove any old friction material. Once installed, follow a gentle bed-in procedure: perform 10 to 15 stops from 30 MPH down to 5 MPH without coming to a complete stop. This allows the Carbon-Aramid material to transfer evenly to the rotor, ensuring maximum stopping power and silent performance for the life of the pad.

Choose Lyndall Z-Plus for a powerful, clean, and quiet braking experience that outperforms the factory standard in every category.

Lyndall Gold-Plus: Premium Carbon-Matrix Braking for Modern Harleys

If you take pride in the appearance of your Harley-Davidson and the quality of your ride, the Lyndall Brakes Gold-Plus Front / Rear Brake Pads are the definitive upgrade. Specifically engineered for the 4-piston Brembo calipers found on 2008–2026 Touring models and 2006+ V-Rods, the Gold-Plus series solves the two most persistent complaints among Harley owners: annoying brake noise and the thick, black dust that coats your front wheel. Lyndall Brakes has perfected a carbon-matrix compound that delivers high-performance stopping power while remaining remarkably gentle on your motorcycle’s aesthetics.

Advanced Carbon-Matrix Technology

The secret to the Gold-Plus performance is its specialized semi-metallic carbon-matrix formula. Unlike mass-produced organic pads that can feel “mushy” or aggressive sintered pads that act like sandpaper on your rotors, Lyndall’s compound provides a high-friction bite that is significantly stronger than OEM factory pads. This results in 20% to 30% more stopping power and a much more tactile, responsive feel at the lever. Because the material is carbon-based, the dust it produces is nearly invisible and non-corrosive. You can ride for hundreds of miles, and your chrome or contrast-cut wheels will remain bright and clean rather than covered in the heavy metallic soot produced by standard sintered pads.

Silent Operation for a Refined Ride

Many modern Harley Touring models suffer from a high-pitched “warble” or squeal when coming to a slow stop. This is often caused by the rigid nature of factory sintered pads vibrating against the rotor. The Lyndall Gold-Plus compound is designed with natural damping properties that absorb these micro-vibrations, providing near-silent operation. When paired with a well-maintained braking system, these pads are the most effective way to restore a premium, quiet feel to your Street Glide, Road Glide, or Road King.

Ultimate Protection for Your Rotors

Modern Brembo-style rotors, especially those with custom finishes, are expensive to replace. Standard sintered pads are often harder than the rotor surface, leading to deep scoring, heat discoloration, and premature wear. Lyndall Gold-Plus pads are engineered to be “rotor-friendly.” They are designed to wear consistently while preserving the integrity of the disc. This ensures that your braking remains smooth and your rotors last significantly longer, saving you substantial maintenance costs over the life of your motorcycle.

Precision Fitment and Versatility

These pads are a direct-fit replacement for Harley-Davidson OEM Part Number 41854-08. Lyndall manufactures these to exacting standards, ensuring a perfect drop-in fit for your factory Brembo calipers.

• Touring Models (2008–2026): Fits Road King, Electra Glide, Street Glide, and Road Glide (Front & Rear).
• V-Rod Models (2006–2024): Fits VRSCA, VRSCB, VRSCD, and VRSCF Muscle equipped with Brembo calipers.
• Tri-Glide / Freewheeler (2009–2026): Fits Front calipers only.

Pro-Tip for Installation

To experience the full “zero-dust” benefit of Lyndall Gold-Plus pads, it is critical to thoroughly clean your rotors during installation. We recommend using brake cleaner and a Scotch-Brite pad to remove the old friction material left behind by your previous pads. Once installed, follow a gentle bed-in procedure for the first 50–100 miles. Once the carbon-matrix has successfully transferred a thin layer of material to the rotor, you will enjoy the smoothest, cleanest, and most reliable braking performance available for your Harley-Davidson.

Lyndall Gold-Plus: The Gold Standard in Clean, Silent Braking

If you take pride in the appearance of your Harley-Davidson and the quality of your ride, the Lyndall Brakes Gold-Plus Front / Rear Brake Pads are the only choice. Designed specifically for the 2000–2007 Twin Cam and Sportster era, the Gold-Plus series is a boutique, high-performance upgrade that solves the two biggest complaints Harley riders have: annoying brake squeal and filthy, dust-covered wheels. Lyndall Brakes has spent decades perfecting a carbon-matrix compound that delivers superior stopping power while remaining remarkably gentle on your motorcycle’s aesthetics.

Carbon-Matrix Technology: Power Without the Mess

The magic of the Gold-Plus pad lies in its specialized semi-metallic carbon-matrix formula. Unlike cheap organic pads that wear out quickly or aggressive sintered pads that act like sandpaper on your rotors, Lyndall’s compound provides a high-friction “bite” that is 30% stronger than OEM factory pads. This results in shorter stopping distances and a much more responsive lever feel. Because the material is carbon-based, the “dust” it produces is nearly invisible and non-corrosive. You can ride for hundreds of miles and your chrome or polished aluminum wheels will remain bright and clean, rather than covered in the thick black soot produced by standard pads.

The End of Brake Squeal

We have all experienced the frustration of a high-end motorcycle that squeaks and squeals every time you approach a stoplight. This is usually caused by high-frequency vibrations between the pad and the rotor. The Lyndall Gold-Plus compound is designed with natural damping properties that absorb these vibrations, providing near-silent operation in almost all conditions. When paired with a well-maintained braking system, these pads are the most effective way to eliminate “turkey warble” and high-pitched shrieks, giving you a refined, premium braking experience.

Protecting Your Expensive Rotors

Brake rotors for 2000–2007 Harleys—especially if you have upgraded to custom or polished discs—are expensive to replace. Standard sintered pads are often harder than the rotor material itself, leading to deep grooves, scoring, and warping. Lyndall Gold-Plus pads are engineered to be “sacrificial.” They are designed to wear consistently while preserving the surface of the rotor. This ensures that your braking remains smooth and your rotors last significantly longer, saving you hundreds of dollars in maintenance costs over the life of your bike.

Precision Fitment and Versatility

These pads are a direct-fit replacement for Harley-Davidson OEM Part Number 44082-00. Lyndall manufactures these to much tighter tolerances than mass-market brands, ensuring a perfect drop-in fit for your factory calipers.

• Touring Models (2000–2007): Fits Road King, Electra Glide, Street Glide, and Road Glide (Front & Rear).
• Softail Models (2000–2007): Fits Heritage, Fat Boy, and Night Train (Front & Rear).
• Dyna Models (2000–2007): Fits Wide Glide, Low Rider, and Super Glide.
• Sportster (2000–2003): Fits all XL models.
• V-Rod (2002–2005): Fits early VRSC models with standard calipers.

Technical Tip for Maximum Performance

To experience the full “zero-dust” benefit of Lyndall Gold-Plus pads, it is critical to thoroughly clean your rotors with brake cleaner and a Scotch-Brite pad during installation. This removes the old, dirty friction material left behind by your previous pads. Once installed, follow a gentle bed-in procedure for the first 50–100 miles. Once the carbon-matrix has successfully transferred to the rotor, you will enjoy the smoothest, cleanest, and most reliable braking performance available for your Harley-Davidson.
