I never see the track, just back and forth to work and weekend trips.

I changed mine to lyndall golds not too long ago. My stock pads pulsed a bit and lyndall pads don't do that at all.

My only complaint is that they seem to function only at about 75% unless I get them hot. Still enough stopping power to put me on my nose any time but I'm not happy with feedback at the lever until they're hot. That may be due to something other than the pads though - I'm not a brake expert so don't know for sure.

You can buy the lyndall gold pads from American Sport Bike.

Ditto, love the Golds. I put them on before my first track day, much better performance than stock on the street - eliminated pulsing, did fine on the track as well. One day I may put them on the back as well, if those old things ever wear out. Ditto on American Sport Bike too, great source for many things Buell.
