Good luck with the SBS ones, they squealed when I used them.
They're now in a box under my bench with other bits and bobs labelled shite...

Thanks, I just read up on them, they seem great, but £39 for a set of pads seems bit steep for me!

Maybe I’ll get these Sbs ones

No, you've linked to the cheaper FA13 organic pads.

FA13V pads are semi sintered.

Those EBC v-series pads are squeal free for me.
But more expensive than the basic FA13 organic type.
 

EBC FA13V semi sintered pads.

I found that the DS ones in my 400 soon started to sqeal - I replaced them with a standard road use Brembo Carbon/Ceramic pads that I tappered on the leading edges - back in 2022 Brembo's were £34 delivered.
I found the Brembo pads had a nice progressive feel to them.  I now have them on my 500 as well.

Like the choice of tyres I think it's quite subjective and dependent on riding style - nothing wrong with the DS ones they function OK - no doubt the noise can be fixed with some tapering of the leading edge & disc face cleaning.
