Those are EBC HH on stock rotors. The pads have about 4k miles of aggressive street riding and a couple of track days. Thickness wise, they are about 4mm which is about 60 - 70% compared to the new ones.
The pads in the pictures correspond to their location on the bike (i.e. left cliper pads are on the left, and right caliper pads are on the right, etc.). The white spots on the pads look like polished silver, and very smooth.

Why do I want to know? Because I went down trying to stop when the cars slowed down in front. As I squeezed the lever, the bike was barely slowing down, so I squeezed more, and the front locked at about 40 mph.
I am OK, the bike, too. Thank you for asking. I just installed a new set of EBC HH, and on my very first attempt to brake from 80 mph, the new, not yet broken in pads gave me better feedback, and slowed down the bike better than the old ones.
I kept thinking the bike wasn't braking as I thought it should, but I thought it was in my head, and never investigated. Dang!
So, what are you thoughts? Once again, I ride pretty aggressively, meaning accelerating into triples frequently and slowing down.
BTW, this was my 3rd or 4th set of EBC HH, and never had an issue.
And, yes I am going to contact the manufacturer.
The kicker is I was riding to the track day, all packed, saddlebags, etc.
