    New pads purchased. Hope I didn't screw up.

    Was looking for rear pads but found these fronts for my 82 GS850GZ. Don't need them right now, since there is plenty of pad left and no breaking issues, but I found these and decided to pick them up as the price seemed right:

    Vesrah Pads

    Hope I didn't make a mistake since they are around 10 years old. The rear pads I ordered are EBC organics.

    Darn, with so many daily riders it's hard to decide which one to jump on next.;)

    Should be fine.

    Not sure if they are a semi-metallic design, though. If they are, they will wear away at the rotors, but you will stop just fine.

      I checked Vesrah's web site and they list the VD-322's as organic according to the pictures but it's a little confusing because they also say they're semi-metalic in another location:

        They're fine, since they were sealed.
        Don't worry about your rotors...they're in huge abundance all over ebay and bike yards.
