OK, they're expensive... but I guess worth it. I heard EBC was pretty good too, any thoughts ?

Personally no. They have come very highly recommended for their stainless steel lines and brake pads from several people I know who are in the powersports business. I do believe we also have members here using their brake lines and pads.

I've been using Sixity pads for years. They work great.

All I can find on the site is the service manual. Maybe I'm not looking in the right place.

I don't recommend sinistered on the rear. I had a pair that was so noisy when I drug just a bit of rear that I had to take them off.

Not disagreeing with your opinion but I'm pretty sure the bikes came with sinistered pads from the factory.
