FZS600 Fazer / Front Brake Pads

Considering i don't use my bike for commuting only a nice ride out now and then what would you recommend as the best Value against performance Pads i should fit.
My discs are ok within Haynes Manual Tolerance as measured with a Caliper.
I will replace the Brake Fluid as i don't know when it was last done and may replace the Seals if they look poor.
Do i really need new Brake lines or should the what look like originals be ok, is there a big improvement or is it just for looks?

Pleased to here that Chicken
I have replaced the H1 and H4 Lamps with Phillips Hi-Viz which helps as well, not being sure how to do a link but i got them from here http://www.regalautobulbs.co.uk about 10 Quid each lamp.
I have now changed the oil and filter which was straight forward and next the Gear box oil .
After that gonna strip the Calipers down and re-Pad with new seals clean Dot 4.
The Rubbers on the Carb to Barrel connection are showing signs of splitting but performance is ok at the moment.

FZS600 Fazer / Headlight Mod

 :D  Just done the Headlight Mod now got two Dipped Lamps, I soldiered the L shaped Female Spade cable on it was easier than unpicking the old cable which i got from another lamp connector.Then run some 1.5mm cable to the Main Connection unit (2000 bike) and then removed the spare Green Male connection from the Black Connector and then connection made using a  Spade 6.3mm Male/Female insulated  outside the Black Block but in the main connection unit.
Have to say without the help from the chap who posted the pics and info i would have needed a lot more help , so many thanks.
Checked coolant level all ok, Oil just change Silkolene 4 and Filter, cleaned the Clutch Lever Pivot and Greased, what a difference that makes.Change next .
