Brake pads
Getting ready to order tires, tubes, liners and Brak Pads for a 07 Road King. Searched for info on the differnet pads, could not find what I was looking for. Question is what pads are you using and have used for a period of time with the best results. Not buying the cheap one or the most expensive ones either. Looking for a good set. Please let me know what you are using or feel is the best out there.
What is Sintered brake pads and are they on the bike?

I know I'll get the "cheap pads on the 20k motorcycle" lecture from someone, but here goes. Acting on a tip from a trusted tech, I tried some metalic-ceramic pads sold on Ebay by Partsangel, who has >15k feedbacks at 99.7% positive.
After about six months of use I can find no faults with these pads. They perform very well in wet or dry, leave almost no dust, are wearing well with no noticeable wear on rotors, and are silent. These are for '00-'07 touring bikes and they currently have nothing for later-model bikes. The branding on the package was "NGBBP", and the price is $44 shipped for three sets. Since installing them several of my friends have followed suit and they have reported no problems or voiced any complaints.
This seller has numerous auctions going at any given time, but here is a current one.

While I was looking, I saw those and almost took a chance. But went with the Z+. So far so good.
