I use HH on front, anything I can find on the rear.

HH are supposed to clear water from wet disks better than non sintered pads, also find that they have a sharper feel that I quite like . On the rear HH is rather pointless.

I use HH on the front and won't go back to organics. I too like the increased bite and they work well in heavy rain. <Remember that bit as you get used to them.

I'm using HH on the rear. The braking system on my bike is quite good and I can judge the amount of power I apply to the rear quite well. I often take pillions so extra initial 'bite' is helpful.

On my 250 I prefer organics. The rear brake system is excellent and organics work well in drums, they also release less dust than sintered.
I haven't fitted HH to the front as they wear the disc rotors faster than organics and discs for my 250 aren't made anymore.

Pat, you probably know this already, but ABE Engineering can make you a disc for your 250 should you ever need one.

As above; definitely noticeable for the front, but unlikely to be worth it for the back.
