replacing front and rear brake pads....

[Cliff]

Looked at the front and rear pads on the I/S and can see that I need to replace all of them soon.  I have OEM rotors and want pads that won't wear the rotors quickly.  Are there any vendors running sales or rebates at this time?  Any info or suggetions would be greatly appreciated.
Ordered OEM pads from Directline....along with the 3 "O" rings


Edit... I am also looknig for a source for quality MDP for the splines.

Ordered the Guard dog Moly paste and grease.

Thanks

Hey Cliff,

I have 67k on my stock rotors and have replaced the pads a couple of times since owning the bike.  I have always replaced with OEM pads.

DON'T SKIMP ON BRAKES!!!  Use only OEM Pads.  I have 110k mi on my I/S and rotors are in great shape.  Slipped-up and got aftermarket rear pads from the dealer last time (didn't say OEM Only) and they wore out in under 10k mi.  However, if you have aftermarket rotors, the OEM pads will eat them up.

oem pads are HH rated which are the highest lvl at this time. All of the manufactures have HH rated pads. see my other post for why not to use EBC on stock rotors.
