My new pads are EBC HH. IDK if it is the same compound as the sintered fronts. Looks the same. Well, my impression after about a week is that the are nice but I do not know that they are any better than stock. They feel more solid in the lever but that is probably only because they are new pads and 2x as thick as the worn ones I took off.
They are totally silent, I'll give them that. I did not need to apply any brake quite goop to the backing plates either.

Thought I'd give a small bit of advice here...DO NOT USE ORGANIC PADS on your rocketship.I had NO idea how they would work...but I'll just say....stick with the HH sintered pads all the way around.I had to take these off,and reinstall my HH "used" pads(rears only).There's still enough pad to get by without any drama until I get another set.HH means just that...high heat....which is exactly what you get from a zx14 rear brake(or front) .
