I was very impressed by the Carbone Lorraine SBK pads that went into the SS bike as these gave really good stopping power. So good in fact that I may well stick some in the 748 when they need replacing.

I have Performance Friction pads in my monster and they pull it up pretty quick - brakes feel better than on my 996 and they are standard apart from the pads.

Bendix Matrix are the kiddies of choice I reckon - bit pricey though

Bendix MF super sport sintered.

Worked v well in the 996, ready to go in to the 998 soon and also will be replacements for the 748's when they are ready to change.

I am running SBK3 in the 748 Ant and I find them to be a bit wooden.
Took em out and rubbed em do a bit but still not much difference.

I will do em again before I take it out next to see if I can get some life into em but still think the Bendix beat em hands down.
