Default Front Brake squeal

I have a 2007 Ultra Classic (FLHTCU) that has a bad brake squeal when I'm almost at a complete stop. It has been in the dealership twice to no avail. I have removed the pads and cleaned off the brake dust, beveled the edges and used anti-braker squeek, but that hasn't worked either. Next step to totally replace the brake pads. Any suggestions on what brand of pads tp buy? Any other ideas.

Have you switched your front rotors? Freind had the same issues and the dealer switched them and poof. squeal gone

Take a peek at your front rotors, they are marked right and left. Now this is gonna sound crazy but make sure the right is on the left side and left on the right side. There was a TSB in late 06 to switch the direction of the rotors. Yours being an 07 they should be already but if their not the dealer will switch them, no charge.
