I need to replace the rear pads on my K7 Exec 650. What type of pad should I use; sintered, kevlar, organic, ceramic? What are OEM pads made of? The bike has about 26,000miles, but the rear brake has been left on and apparently overheated judging from the discolouration on the disc. Any helpful comments appreciated.

My understanding is that the standard model rear pads are the non-sintered and the Exec rear are the sintered type. I have bought the OE ones typically.
