Anyone have a recommendation on which are best? Mainly, I want Quiet and smooth. I've done searches here and found that non-OEM pads don't last near as long, but I can handle that as long as they're quiet & smooth, and, of course, stop well.
I've used all 3 of those brands and all sqeeled so bad it was rediculous. Only Kawasaki genuine pads work. At least that's the way it's been for me. I gave up trying to save money on brakes.
321,000 miles on KZ's that I can remember. Not going to see any more.
I have been using Feroda with no problems, swearing by them, and no squeeling. The front pads have been changed a couple of times, the rears just needed to be changed so I picked up EBC pads locally and was surprised to find they had much better feel and better braking than the Ferodas (and no squeal). I will be changing the fronts to EBC when the time comes.
