Default brake pad information please

Hello guys and gals
I am about to replace the original HD front brake pads on my Heritage with only 17K miles on them. I would like some feedback on your experience with longevity of front pads, what other brand of pads have you used and any particular brand you recommend?
Thanking you inadvance.
Ride Safe

I put the lyndal pads on mine. I like them because they dont produce a lot of dirty dust. [8D]

EBC Kevlars work for me. The are quiet and easy on polished rotors. They are 19 bucks from Jireh's. I've rode tens of thousands of miles on them with no complaints.
