So I'm looking at doing a brake job on my 13 gsxr. I'm going to be using galfer wave rotors. My question is what are you all using for pads? I've heard some say stick to oem. Others have said go ebc. I see golfer offers pads too. I'll be doing a bit of track with it but mostly road miles. Also the lines are all upgraded already if that make any difference. Any suggestions would be great.
After the oem's were done, for What ever reason, I've always used ebc HH pads. This was on an 1198, R6, ZX6R. These were all street use,Never had issue and got good use out of them. Some scotch Brite to scour the rotors and away we went. You ask 3 people, you'll get 4 different answers. When in doubt OEM, but if you go aftermarket, have a look at the ebc HH series.

New rotors then use new pads, do not go stock, EBC is good. Go see Dave, he will hook you up
Your best bet is to contact Galfer and see which pads they recommend to use with their rotors. If you haven't already purchased the rotors, I will recommend the Braketech Iron rotors. Based on all the homework I did when I was looking for rotors, they provide excellent feedback and work really well in dry or wet conditions. The only downside is that they require a wipe down after a ride if they happen to get wet.
