Replaceing Brake Pads

Need to swap them out soon, got over 15k on the oem's, any suggestions on quality aftermarket pads?

Thanks    Stu
 
Two of the more well known brands for replacement pads are Carbone Lorraine  and EBC. I used the EBC on my C14. I don't know if they were any better than the OEM pads or not (I didn't feel a difference). But they were much noisier and left more dust. If it were me, I would probably just buy the OEM pads again. They worked fine anyway. But that's just my opinion.

I got the front and rear set of EBC HH from Murphskits.com

Very easy to install also.

Yours are gone at 15K?  Guess I should check mine again.  When I looked at them around 12,500, there was a lot of material left.

As for the pads, OEM part number for a set is 43082-0112, and are available for $100 here ($50 per side), with free shipping : http://www.riderschoiceracing.com/fiche_select.asp?mfg=Kawasaki&partnumber=43082-0112+

Or here for $95 here but you need to add shipping : http://www.ronayers.com/ProductDetails/N/687/SKU/1319941
