Today fitted the EBC Semi-sintered pads, and although only a dozen miles under the clock first impressions are good.
I can make the forks dive now, which no doubt will manifest itself as a new problem with fork oil seep down the track 😅.

Thanks all for the inputs,
Simon

...the 400F has semi-sintered pads now too - which sound like a bag of small washers being ‘tinkled’ when free running. A slight dab of brake and the noise disappears. Is this normal / will it settle?
