Went ahead with just new lyndall gold pads front n back. I’ll flush it again with new fluid and see if that makes a noticeable difference. Probably the stock pads since I bought the bike with 6500 original miles on it. Has 8k on it now.

One in the picture looks like a rebranded GMA or Ultima with the springer mount bracket. Either are decent I've used both on custom builds builds before.

it says dna poucgho and other… doesn’t say oem… and that’s consistant with many aftermarket brake options for some reason.

Just a FWIW, last year or even earlier, I saw a nice Springer 'mount' from Thunderbike (I think) in Germany.
It was a radial mount, so you could use any aftermarket (or off-brand, Yamaha) 108mm type 4 piston caliper
you wanted. I thought it was pretty cool, but now I can't find the link.... Sorry!

good luck,

T.
