I use Performance Friction pads because the best Ducati tuner in the country recommended them.

And since then I've suitably vindicated it - I went sailing past a lot of DD'rs on the brakes last year running the PF pads with standard monster 620 brakes when some of those I was sailing past had 4-pad calipers, radial M/C's ....

You can quite easily lift the rear off the ground with two fingers, and if you're keen, it's simple enough for even me to be able to hold it there for a bit before dropping the rear down again.

Incredible feel - you won't be disappointed.

I voted "Other", as I use the OE ones. But I do not know what they are.

Sintered pads as opposed to normal ones, seem to have more bite and a back brake that works.
Probably wear my discs out sooner though

What ever came in the bike, never had a bike long enough to wear them out and fit new ones.
