    Which rear pads do most go for?? I do use the rear brake a bit round town but not much I will always put good pads in the front but would you fit cheap pads to rear or just go genuine
    Cheers

    Matey, you can't really be asking this? Fit the best you can afford mate.
    Imagine you need an emergency stop...then you'll need your rear too.
    Sorry to be old and sensible but don't gamble on your stoppers :)

    OEM, the rears on their own are pretty cheap

    Just got some genuine pads in the end, now big question front pads??? do loads of track days but still use the bike on the road, which pad is going to give me good brakes when cold but great brakes when very hot on the track and just to make it harder pads that do not turn to mush when wet like carbon lorraine pads money no issue!!
