Shop By Buell Model
From the aggressive track performance of the XB12R Firebolt to the high speeds of the 1125CR or 1125R, Buell bikes demand reliable motorcycle stopping power. Even on legacy and beginner-friendly bikes like the Blast or M2 Cyclone, the Buell brake system requires high-performance brake pads like those carried at Sixity.
Sixity carries pads for Buell brakes for several model years, from 1998 to 2010, including those from the Ulysses, Lightning, and Firebolt series. Our Buell brake replacement pads come in three different materials:
-
Organic: Our Q6-Series pads combine high-temperature resins, rubber, fiberglass, Kevlar, and carbon compounds for smooth, controlled braking. They’re best for fair-weather street riding or low-speed commuting.
-
Ceramic: The C6-Series uses high-strength ceramic fibers with metallic filaments and bonding resins for quiet performance and optimal fade resistance.
-
Metallic: Our N6-Series sintered Buell brake pads fuse bronze metallic particles under immense heat and pressure. The metallic pads provide excellent heat dissipation and prevent brake fade under extreme stress, making them ideal for high-speed racing, off-road trails, and mountain descents.

FAQs
Why do some Buell listings mention countersunk screws?
Some Buell listings mention countersunk screws because the catalog uses that specific rotor hardware as a unique fitment tag, helping you identify your bike’s exact braking system. From the late 90s to early 2000s, Buell changed caliper and brake setups across its tube-frame models. The “countersunk” tag or listing helps ensure you get the right pad shape.
Are sintered pads worth it for Buell brakes?
Sintered pads make sense for Buell braking systems if you’re an aggressive sports rider, frequently race on tracks, or go off-roading with the Ulysses XB12X. The material handles heat, mud, water, and various terrains better than most others. But if you mainly do city riding or typical commuting, ceramic or organic pads work just fine.
How do I know when my Buell brake pads need replacing?
You can tell when brake pads need replacing because of performance changes and other warning signs, such as a spongy lever feel and reduced stopping power or high-pitched squealing and harsh grinding sounds. That said, routine motorcycle brake maintenance should uncover brake pad wear before noises or performance issues. When the friction material wears down to between 1.5mm and 2.0mm, upgrade your Buell brakes with fitment-guaranteed Sixity pads.
