EBC FA400 (Organic with Kevlar)
use them on my '02 with chromed rotors.
EBC recommends these pads for polished/chromed rotors.
I like them, found the sintered metal pads too agressive on my rotors

Yes you are missing
Yachtman, the reason is a stock sinister pad will score a rotor killing any reason to own polished rotors. If you should ever buy polished rotors than you must use a softer non-metallic pad. I have and am currently using a EBC Organic on my rear and I can truthfully say they are the worst piece of junk I have ever used in my 46 years of riding. They are like a Hershey Bar that smears a thick black coating on my Aluminum rotors, ya MMC. I had to buy something right a way and they are in stock at the first store I came to. Brake Pad recommendation...None.

Polished, chrome or not......the pads are going to wear through the finish.
Not like a brake pad to polish as they scrape. The polish is what, on the surface?
Chrome is how thick? Your rotors will not look new. Where the pads touch will no longer be polished nor chrome.
Some pads are cleaner than stock harley, but they will not save your shiny rotor.
