    Most seem to use EBC HH pads. I use them on my commuter nd they seem to do well for that and some touring. Google them and you should be able to find many places to buy them, Amazon seems to have good prices on them.

    Yup, I'll second that. I really think they are better than OEM.

    NO, not necessarily, depends upon year of 6th gen, some supplier sources do have it wrong and will show the same front and rear for your year and that may not be correct. I know for a fact the 2007 6y gen (non abs) has a different front than the rear. All 6th gen are not the same, not sure what year made the change.

    Based on my EBC chart I grabbed a while ago, that wouls be 2006+ have the different front and rear pads.
    The EBC HH Pad part numbers are:
    02-05 FA261HH (f/r)
    06-09* FA388HH (f)
    06-09* FA261HH (r)
    2009 is for the US only, other countries went until 2012 for the 6 Gen,
