What kind of brakes pads do you use?

OEM and nothing else goes on my Hondas. I have found either the aftermarket pads are to hard on the rotors and wear the rotors out prematurely or the pads are to soft and wear themselves out way to fast or are very noisy when used. The OEM Honda brake pads have given me the most life with less sound and easiest on the rotors of any aftermarket pads I ever tried an their price ain't bad either imo.

I had already read that a long time back but I wanted to confirm.
How long do your Honda pads last? Front? Back?
Where do you buy the Honda OEM brake pads?
I am at 18000 miles and will be changing the tires soon so I want to have brake pads around just in case I need them.

OEM here as well...when it is time.
I'm currently using EBC scintered pads on my DR650; only because my rear rotor developed grooves and the EBC's will take care of that.

I'm currently using EBC sintered pads, just installed them on the GL...the OEM when wet did not seem to hold as good... the EBC are all business !!!

I fitted the genuine Honda pads. I have used EBC pads on a BMW and they trashed the discs so I won't risk going there again.

Totally agree they worked just fine, it's that they were harsh on the disc's. I have heard that they work perfectly with EBC discs but I have not tried them.
