brake pads

[mig]

Good day everyone:

Happy Holidays.

I am getting close to needing brake pads on th 07RT that I bought 3 months ago. Checked the price of the BMW brand and was shocked that a single pair is 90 dollars and then some . I checked the EBC catalog and they sell sintered (sp?) pads for the bike at 26~28 dollars a pair. I would like to know if any of you have tried these or any other generic brands. Also I guess there are 2 types of sintered H and HH. I dont think I need the HH but need some input.

Thanks.

I'm using the EBC HH; had them for the last 50k+ miles. They work fine. My local BMW dealer even carries them.

I bought the beemerboneyard pads and they leave a lot more brake dust then the OEM originals. My front pads also squeak, didn't squeak with the OEM pads. Still tough to justify the cost of the OEM pads.
