I will NEVER use stock pads again...Lyndells produce no brake dust to pit your wheels, they stop better, and last longer than Stock pads. Nuff said.

Lyndall's gold + for me but the Z + both are way better stopping power without the brake dust and last longer than the stock H-D pads.
www.easternperformance.com have the best deal on lyndall's

The Brembo brake pads sold by hd as hd pads are really Brembo pads. Its embossed right into the pads themselves. I don't have any issue with them.
No squeak and no dust. I don't get why people don't like them.

You can check the Vendors tab on top, HogPro is selling Lyndall Z+ $105 for all 3 sets. Cheaper and way better than stock.

Go for it ! Except I would do the Gold pads over the Z's - A little sticker and better performance in the rain.
