the rear pads are down to 1mm (after 13500 miles) so I ordered a replacemet set.

I settled for brembo carbon ceramic which are nearest to OEM as I don't have any issue with them (except ,aybe they are too powerful!!).

I took your advise guys and stayed away from sintered.

incidently, Yamaha parts come in at almost �40 while brembo @ �30
