What if I hadn't read the thread again? But I guess you know me better than that.

Bought mine here...
atvbrakesnmore.com I think the set I bought is sold out (frt/r both for 40 bucks and that included shipping)
Went on great and the ad says they are a kevlar compound from DuPont...
No more squeaks from the rear pads...blew out LOTS of brake dust from the stock ones...plus I think they had hardened...they were old.

Anyone have suggestion on what brake pad is best? Got links?

I got 3500 miles from the OEM pads. I got 4100 miles from Ferodo Platinum pads. I've got 3400 miles on the EBC Organic pads that are in there now.

All three of these pads had acceptable performance, with no squealing.

My bike is in my signature.

IHTH someone!

I will note the make when I change them out. I do lots of breaking with both front and rear simultaneously in hopes of spreading the wear more evenly. Think that matters?
