There is a reason that myself, Valkyrie, and some of the AER enduro teams have moved to the Teves Mk. 60 ABS stuff...it is a profound difference. And all of us basically had to weigh the cost of writing the cars off (replacing and running factory ABS), deleting ABS and spending or two getting the pad, prop valve, etc set-up (and be slower in the wet even when figured out), or spending the money on the Teves stuff....it is a no brainer after a while. The real ballers move to the Bosch Motorsport ABS. Big money there....

Going back to the original question. No on Hawk Pads Yes on staggered compounds in my years of trial and error.
