I would try Honda and try to get OEM. I used another brand and they squeel on and off.

I ordered mine from partsnmore, cheap and they work well.  I actually order the ones for my 550 from Honda, and they squeal like you wouldn't believe.

I'm using a set of his Ferodo pads in my race bike and they're fantastic.  You'd never believe a single disc, single piston could stop so much bike and rider in such a short distance.  Great stuff.

How do the Ferodo pads measure up against basic EBC organic pads? They are about the same price. I should have asked you about pads before I rebuild my caliper.
