Oops...correction, what was I thinking? I meant to say 4 *pads* up front. There's one set in rear. Must have been thinking about needing to redo my truck's brake pads. (I only wish they were as inexpensive)

i was hopin beople would be talkin about monoblock calipers and what fully floating means an stuff like that.

looking at places where they sell stuff is often a good way to find out how much it costs...
ebay has a handy feature to search for past auctions and it gives you measdure of what most people are paying.
search how to replace brake pads on google
youtube just taught me how to service and re install rear brake master cyl.

I guess i should have clarified. My question was more geared to how much i was going to pay to get it done. I am in the process now of just doing it myself and was looking for the best brake pads at the best price. Anyone have any favorite web sites to order from? I found was appears to be 4 front pads and 2 rear pads for $44.00. This seems really cheap but maybe just what im looking for.

Does that price sound right?? Here is the website i found them at. It appears that ordering this would mean im getting 4 front and 2 rear pads. Correct, or am i missing something?? http://store.sixity.com/Items/004003...20Brake%20Pads

mk2mike....my bike isnt riddin all too hard and no stunts are performed on it so i think those are just what i need and for that price i dont think i can pass it up. I am seeing it right and those are all the pads i need for both the front and rear....correct?? lol I was also wondering, are those pads going to be similar to the stock ones?
