Default Brake pads

It's time to replace my brake pads, any opinions on where to get good ones would be appreciated, mine are the original pads with only 9,200 miles on them and I never rode the brakes hard at all. TIA.

Get EBC. I usually find a good deal on Amazon or Ebay.

I got over 20K on my original pads so I replaced them with OEMs.
They were still good but I thought 20K was enough.

D2Moto sintered pads. I've used them on 2 Softails with good results, 1/3 the price of others and work good. They run them @ 30% off several times a year and free shipping.

Ferodo Sintered here. Use them on my sport and track bikes.

More importantly get the caliper service/rebuild kit when you do the brakes (considering you are doing your own work). It's dirt cheap, super easy and takes minutes. Worth it - make your caliper like new!

I really don't like the black streaks left on my www. Are there pads that are better in this regard?

^Sintered pads are lower dust compared to Organic pads...
