Important: Disc-Brake Variants Only

This is a disc brake pad set, not a drum brake shoe. Some Hero model families listed above were sold in both drum-brake and disc-brake variants, and the front brake configuration can vary by year, trim and market.

If the front wheel uses a drum brake, do not order this product simply because the model name appears in the compatibility list. The motorcycle must use the front disc-brake / caliper application that specifies 06455AAN211S.

Catalogue Cross-Check

The base part number 06455-AAN-211 is independently catalogued as PAD SET FR in a Hero Hunk front-caliper group, further confirming that this is a front caliper brake-pad set.

What These Brake Pads Do

The front brake pads sit inside the front brake caliper and clamp against the brake disc / rotor when the front brake is applied. Friction between the pad material and the rotating disc converts wheel motion into heat and braking force.

• Front braking response
• Brake lever feel
• Stopping consistency
• Noise and vibration control
• Brake-disc wear
• Heat management during repeated braking

Hero Genuine Pad Characteristics

Hero describes this genuine front brake pad kit as using high-quality friction material intended to provide stable braking, resistance to brake fade, consistent braking feel and reduced noise / vibration when correctly fitted to the intended caliper.

When Should Front Brake Pads Be Inspected?

• Braking bite has become noticeably weaker
• Brake lever travel has increased
• Scraping or grinding noise is heard during braking
• Pad material appears very thin
• One pad is wearing significantly faster than the other
• Brake disc shows unusual scoring
• Brake performance changes after heavy braking
• Caliper service or front-wheel repair is being performed

Brake Pad vs Brake Shoe

06455AAN211S is a FRONT DISC BRAKE PAD KIT. A disc brake pad sits inside a caliper and clamps a visible brake disc / rotor. A brake shoe expands inside a brake drum. Although some online titles loosely use both terms, the correct technical identity for this product is front brake pad set.

Front vs Rear

This SKU is for a front brake-pad application. Rear disc-brake pads can use completely different part numbers and pad shapes. Never assume front and rear pads are interchangeable.

What You Will Receive

• 1 x Hero Genuine Front Brake Pad Retail Kit / Set
• Part number: 06455AAN211S

Kit Contents Note

Hero's current online record identifies the product as a Kit Pad with net quantity 1 retail unit, while its published Kit BOM is NA. Therefore, this listing does not promise additional pad pins, clips, springs or caliper hardware unless those components are physically supplied inside the Hero package.

Not Included Unless Specifically Supplied

• Brake caliper
• Brake disc / rotor
• Caliper mounting bracket
• Brake hose
• Master cylinder
• Pad pin / retaining clip unless included in the supplied genuine pack
• Brake fluid

Common Reasons for Uneven Brake-Pad Wear

• Caliper slide / guide movement is restricted
• Caliper piston is sticking
• Brake disc has excessive runout or damage
• Pad pin or contact areas are corroded
• Incorrect installation
• One pad has become contaminated

If the old pads have worn very unevenly, simply installing new pads without correcting the underlying caliper problem can cause the new set to wear prematurely.

Brake Disc Inspection

Whenever front pads are replaced, inspect the disc / rotor for deep scoring, cracks, severe heat discoloration, excessive wear, abnormal runout / warping and oil or grease contamination.

Installation Best Practice

• Brake work should be carried out by a competent technician
• Confirm the exact part number before opening the pack
• Inspect the caliper piston and slide mechanism
• Clean the caliper correctly before fitting new pads
• Never apply grease to the friction face of the pads or brake disc
• Make sure retaining hardware is correctly seated
• Pump the brake lever before moving the motorcycle to restore normal pad-to-disc contact
• Check for free wheel rotation and correct brake release
• Bed new pads progressively

Safety Note

The front brake is a safety-critical system. If the brake lever feels abnormal, the caliper leaks, the disc is damaged, or braking remains poor after pad replacement, stop using the motorcycle until the brake system has been properly inspected.
