Without looking at mine, they look very very similar.

Good find. The lighting looks close to the Gen2, except for where the plate bolts up.

I need a new gen2 (or upgrade to gen3)

Mine wore out at like 41 hrs.... And it had nothing to do with me not squeezing hard enough either!

And Craig that was only place I knew where to get them was gator tail and needed some but I don't want to spend that much again!

Gatortail told me that the pads wear due to angle of the motor :? Find that hard to believe when it's hydraulic brakes

I'll be needing a new set around 65 hours. If im doing any kind of hard reversing, I lock the lever in.

i had my first set go out at 44 hours ( or atleast the one closest to motor). i have 82 hours now and i swapped the pads around to prolong life once and will get probally another 20.
the problem i see if the caliber doesnt retract enough and the inner pad just barely rubs the rotor at all times.

Mine sits like this.

Then turn the rotar 180 degrees, and it sits like this.
