Assuming this is for your 09, I'd stick with the HD pads. I like the HD pads on the Brembos and Lyndall Z's on the prior Nissin brakes. That's just my opinion though so take it for what it's worth.

Also how do you know that you need new pads? Just asking because they look thin to begin with. If you look down in with a light and a metal rule you can measure the pad or simply look at the grooves in the pads. If you cannot see any of the groove then it is down to the bare minimum, if you have groove left on the side profile you still have pad left.
