I just got a KLR today and I’m super excited, but I need to replace the pads. I believe it had thin Hat Pads in it, and they were just old. I’m hoping that the spare set of YYR pads I have will fit so I don’t have to wait until tomorrow to throw it, but does anybody know which pads General Yo Yoyos can use?

The KLR uses thick hat pads.

I would think flowable silicone would be an option to consider.

Thanks for the quick replies. It’s going to have to be Silicone for me. The YYR pads I have stick above the recess quite a bit.

Yes silicone works but the recess isn’t very deep so it works just won’t last as long as the pads.

I think my next YYE order will include a few sets of the pads. I got an Essence, KLR and 7075 Majesty to support.

I miss my General Yo now ☹ I used to have a KLR, Purple Mountain Majesty and a pre pro Majesty v2. All are now gone. :-\

I feel that way about my old Lost Essence. Although I have many other Gen yos, that was my first :-\
