ok my rear brake pads are almost gone (started making scratchy noise) and i'm thinking about replacing both front and rear, what are the options for brake pads for ex500 2005? where about i can get them online or not bother and just go to the dealer for OEM replacementS? I've changed brakes in my cars so i dont think changing them out would be hard. any input will help!

thanks Audirus

Organic and HH, the latter having more stopping power. Glafer makes them, EBC makes them... there's a lot of manufactures out there.

You can get pads almost ANYWHERE. MRI (ridersinc.com) is my favorite retailer, next comes superbikesupply.com. Call them up and they'll get what you need.

You'll need to remove the rear wheel. after that it should be rather straight forward, since you've done brakes before.

It is probably a good idea to put new front pads on if you are doing the rear

and a rebuild. i know FOG recommends it every time you replace brakes. couldn't hurt.
