Speed Triple 955i (02-04)

Looking for a bit of advice, I need to change the oil filter and rear pads on my 03 Speed Triple and was wondering if it is worth going for genuine Triumph or are aftermarket parts worth the saving?
Thanks

EBC HH pads will be considerably cheaper than o/e.
Personally I'd stick with genuine filters (tho there'll be some who disagree)

Many thanks for the advice. Genuine filter and either EBC or Ferodo Pads then.
Did not feel brave enough to mention oil as it seems to stir up all kinds of emotions. :smile:

Goldfren sintered pads are cheap enough on ebay (about £12) and work fine.:thumbup:
