Description

This kit includes small-sized brake pads designed for use on various Harley-Davidson motorcycles. These brake pads are intended for specific caliper systems where smaller brake pads are required. They play a crucial role in providing the necessary friction to engage the brake rotor and slow down or stop the motorcycle.

Key Features:
Material: The brake pads in this kit are made from high-quality friction materials that could include semi-metallic, organic, or carbon-based compounds. These materials offer a balance between durability, heat resistance, and effective stopping power, ensuring reliable performance.
Small Size: The “small” designation refers to the size of the brake pads, which are typically used in smaller or more compact calipers. This makes the kit ideal for certain Harley-Davidson models that use this specific size brake pad.
Complete Kit: The kit includes the brake pads needed for replacement in the designated calipers. It ensures that the rider has all the components required for a complete replacement, providing a seamless brake pad swap.
OEM Fitment: As an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) part, the HD48990-10 brake pad kit is designed to meet Harley-Davidson’s factory standards. This ensures a perfect fit and high-quality performance for your motorcycle.

Functionality:
Friction Material: When the brake lever is pulled, hydraulic pressure is applied to the brake pads, which press against the brake rotor. The friction created by this contact slows the motorcycle down or brings it to a stop.
Reliable Stopping Power: The material composition of the brake pads ensures consistent performance and effective braking, minimizing brake fade and providing smooth, responsive braking action.
Durability: These brake pads are designed to withstand the wear and tear of regular use, including exposure to high temperatures and abrasive conditions, ensuring long-lasting performance.

Applications:
Harley-Davidson Softail Models: The small brake pad kit is often compatible with certain Softail models, especially in rear brake systems or smaller front brake setups.
Harley-Davidson Sportster Models: Some Sportster models may require this size brake pad for their specific brake caliper configurations.
Harley-Davidson Dyna Models: Certain Dyna models may also use these small brake pads depending on their rear or front brake system.
Harley-Davidson Touring Models: Some Touring models, particularly those with rear brake systems that use smaller brake pads, may also be compatible.

Possible Models Compatible with:
Harley-Davidson Sportster Models: Various Sportster models with smaller calipers that require small brake pads.
Harley-Davidson Softail Models: Certain Softail models that use smaller brake pads for specific rear or front brake setups.
Harley-Davidson Dyna Models: Dyna models with smaller calipers may also benefit from this kit.
Harley-Davidson Touring Models: Some Touring models with smaller rear brake calipers may use these brake pads.
