My front pads are about due and my sources are gone.
Anyone?

Check these out:

I don't know how their Buell pads are, but I put a set on the Roadster, and they work and last like the stock original pads for less than 1/3 the price. When I wear this set out, I'll buy from them again.

I go down with to the local Honda/Yamaha/Suzuki/Ducati/BMW dealers with my brake pads and get them off the shelf.

I second what Crusty says.
I've got a set of D2Moto front brake pads on my '06 Ulysses.

They work for my style of riding here in SoCal.
No track days or overly aggressive (stupid) street riding. Mostly freeway and local canyon riding.
I like corner speed vs stop, turn, then squirt.

They seem to throw out about the same amount of brake dust as the stock pads.

Best part NO PULSATING, but that could be more a result of the racing rotor mount kit.

"EBC # FA345HH, available from Drag Spec./Parts Unlimited dealers"

Seems like these are what's on it now. They were very good to me.

Crusty- what the heck?!! Those pads are like 7 bucks! I know I paid around 65 for those EBC pads.

Well $9.20 shipped for HH pads is just too good to pass up!
Thanks for the link Crusty!!

As it turned out, I bought rear pads. What I need is front pads. All they sell is kevlar carbon pads and I have zero experience with them.
Can anyone advise me what to expect if I order them?
