Default Which ebc brake pad?

Does anyone know the number for the ebc double-h brake pads.
Everyone keeps giving me different part numbers.... Its proving difficult to find brakes for this bike.

Some people are saying they are not the right ones?

I don't know the part number, but this bike needs a 4.5mm thick backing plate. Otherwise the pads could potentially fall out if you wear them down to near 0%.

That said, you can run the more common 4mm backing plate pads, but check them often and replace them early.

Greetings - I installed these in March of this year, and they reflect a significant improvement over Brembo OEM's with no appreciable lever fade & excellent bite - which delivers one (index) finger braking, for me. I flushed the front & rear with fresh brake fluid as well. I could not locate these pads in the US then & connected with a distributor in the UK via eBay (gear4bikescom still has an eBay listing up - use the descriptions below to locate) I have a track day scheduled for 6/6/11 & this will define whether I move to Pro Extreme pads at next change. Send me a PM if you have further interest.

These are the correct part numbers & backing plate specifications:

EBC/FA213HH Sintered Brake Pads Rear - BMW S1000RR

By chance, can anyone confirm the EBC HH part number from the old version to the new?
A little research shows that the old part number did indeed have a backing plate that was to thin. I want to make sure I don't stumble on the wrong ones.

FA604/4HH are the standard double h pads or you can go with the epfa604/4hh extreme these are better for track days/racing
i have 4sets of the FA604/4HH that are going cheap( $35.00 per set of 2 x calipers) but i live in australia so may take a week to get there
