What pads to buy?

After ES, I decided that I want to upgrade my brakes. I figure I'll start with pads and work my way up to rotors and Brembo calipers when funds allow.

What pads are you guys using?

HogPro 6 piston calipers and pads. No fade, work great in the wet. Lyndall pads didn't work for crap in the wet for me.

I've got lyndall. I can't really tell the difference for stopping, maybe with a lighter bike.

Lyndall makes gold and black. One is supposed to be broke in,by doing a bunch of stops. I did not get them last time, thats a PIA where I live. Again I can't tell the difference.

Harley ones are better then they used to be. A few years ago they had some awful noises ones, that sounded like they were rubbing at slow speeds. Annoying.

EBC, it's what my local indy has. Dusty, but no other complaints.

I want the kind that won't leave brake dust on the rotors.
Doesn't Brembo make a good shoe?
