I noticed that the Stark site is only carrying the rear Galfer pads. They have no option now for front pads at all. Having a fair amount of experience with LHRBs on various bikes through the years I can confidently say that the Toyo/Brembo compound is a must. You can typically find these on RMATV or Slavens and they hover around $66-78. The OEM front pads for the brembo calipers I don't think are the same Toyo compound as the rear but no question the OEM is the best. They out last and out grab anything I have tried. However I have not tried the Galfer pads. Has anyone tried these and if so can you say with certainty they are nearly as good as the Toyo? I think if you use a foot brake it doesn't matter as much. I would put EBC at the very bottom of the list, then ktm after market(power parts), then Toyo/Oem at the top. It's a little odd that Stark doesn't have a part available for the fronts though.
