Arrow brake pads?

My wifes 1995 Fatboy needs new front brake pads, I'll probably do the rears also. What do you recommend, or use? I'm leaning towards EBC sintered pads. Thanx.

I am curious about this too. I have found that my stock pads on the lo are very temp sensative and the from is screaching a lot at slow speed modulation. Would also like something with a little more "bite".

I like/have them in my 2007 RoadGlide. The FatBoy has just the single caliper up front and I'm looking for something less expensive. Specifically, I'd like to hear from someone with EBC's.

I've been running EBC HH pads for years, starting with my sport bikes and have always been happy with them. Made in USA, BTW.

I have floating rotors on my Road King; they were put on when new and had to be replaced due to wear at 50k (most of this was in rain). I'm fine with that.

Wow those ebc sintered brakes worked great no dust that was my biggest complaint with hd brake pads it was pain in the butt to have to clean my wwalls every few miles because of all that black brake dust on them I am pleased with choice
