Default Best brake pads to reduce brake dust ?

I have used ceramic brake pads on my cars to reduce brake dust, and have had good luck with them. I bought a set of ceramic pads off of ebay for my 2001 Road King and they are just as bad as stock pads, if not worst. Does anyone know of a set brake pads that reduce brake dust.

I'm sure I will be going against the grain here, but I went with Lyndall Golds because of the recommendations here and I found that they are actually producing more dust than my stockers did. Maybe they just need to break in more, but definitely more dust.

Bought a set of kevlar pads before I took a trip last month. By the time the 1st day was done you couldn't tell what color my wheels were. Threw them away as soon as I got home and bought a set of Lyndall Z plus. They haven't produced hardly any dust in the 1000 miles I have had them on and they stop better. My vote is for Lyndall Z.
