Manden,

Welcome to the evening campfire! Bring up a seat for yourself, relax, and be among friends.   :yes:
You will find a lot of experience here for the FJ, so if there is any problem there, maybe we can help.
Cheers,
Red
P.S. Life is too short, and health is too valuable, to ride on cheap parade-duty tires.

Welcome, what a wonder place to own an FJ.

Pat - it appears Brembo makes brake pads for motorcycles - maybe it is the LA pads listed under road about half way down or so on this page?  https://www.bremboparts.com/europe/en/bikes/aftermarket-products/brake-pads
