As mentioned earlier use the number to search for the pad on SBS website and you get a full list of what other bike uses a pad, that could be front or rear. As calipers improve over the years, fronts tend to get relegated to rear applications, as the Fazer rear was once top dog on RD, TZRs etc back in the day.
Perhaps you need to read things thoroughly, before going off half cocked
I recently bought new pads for the Kawasaki and couldn't see SBS anywhere. My last lot I bought from the NEC bike show and were really good but none of the main online bike stores seemed to sell them these days. I wonder why ?
Main options are always EBC, Brembo or Goldfren, Although I've never wanted to trust Goldfren as they are stupidly cheap (I think less that £30 for a full set of front and back!)
I've just gone with sintered EBC as I thought they were the best for fast road riding ??♂️

I'm bored with this now.
I know what you're saying, but WHY would anyone buy pads from an advert that says FRONT, when you want REAR?
I'm bored with your sarcasm to be fair, so no need to answer anymore.
I came on here after I'd spent time on the Internet thinking I'd get some straightforward answers but it's turned into a complete shambles with attitude.
No need......

Tried Goldfren about 30 years ago.
Once was enough.

Indeed, these pads are only really any good for small light weight motorcycles.

Its does, but check the bike its for, that why its says front. At the end of the day it does-not-matter, as long as the part/model number matches you are good-to-go!

As per your request, I informed you in the first post I made to

That fact you can't understand that a part No, is just that a part No and it (the part) doesn't know whether it's going on a front or rear caliper.
It's neither mine or anybody else's fault, just yours. Instead of just saying cheers, thank you, or just nothing. You've dug your own hole, going deeper and deeper with every post, again not anyone else's doing, just yours, due to your lack of understanding.
Finding SBS pads is easy, as clearly demonstrated by the links sent to you by b1k3rdude, why you've had such problems, I couldn't possibly comment and is a matter for yourself.
As for sarcasm, I think you'd do well to look at your own posts, before going off half cocked, again. :rolleyes

Was hardly the crime of the century looking for pads for MY bike was it?
What's "funny" about this post is the fact you still haven't directly answered my question, which would have been the much easier option?
By the sounds of things you had 3 options, Organic, Ceramic or "I'm not sure" which i would've been absolutely fine with, but now you have turned the whole post into something that people don't really want to read, they just want plain and simple info, but now they'll have to wade through all your negative sniping.
The heat ratings and all that were welcomed, i learned something there and appreciate that, but a simple brush up on your social skills wouldn't go amiss because not for the first time you've come across as unnecessarily bolshy and downright rude.
No need to respond anymore as this post is done, in fact i even bought the set found by Bikerdude as well, so i'm all padded up for quite a while now.
