Are these the correct pads for a 2014 ST-S?
I wanted to check before I order them, but are these the correct pads for the 2014 ST-S? (and I hope this link works)

I have to also recommend getting it from Baja Ron. He only sells quality products at fair prices, and you won't be disappointed in his service.

Got them installed, work like a dream. I have had a noise from my right wheel ever since I bought it and that sound is now gone. Thanks again.
These are the ones I pulled off.
Maybe a little thin?

Glad it worked out well for you. The EBC HH pads not only stop better and last longer. They are USUALLY quieter.
Have a GREAT Riding Season!

Can I ask. About how many miles did you get on that (I assume) first set of brakes?

Just over 10k.
I think there is a problem with that wheel. If you look at the pic, the two that were worn down to the metal was the right tire. The ones in the top left of the pic were the left tire. The top left ones were only halfway through, there was a good 8th of an inch or so left. Either the left brake isn't gripping, or the right one is gripping too much. I am going to keep an eye on them. Like I said, there was a constant noise coming from that wheel, even if I wasn't hitting the brakes, so I think it might have been stuck and rubbing. I have noticed that the bike rolls for a longer period now as well.

Since you said you had a noise on the right and the right appear to be down to the metal,did you check the rotors for scoring or warpage?

Oh yes, the rotor is scored, for sure. I am going to order another one when I get paid Friday and swap it out as soon as it shows up.

Based on your pictures
Didn't you have a sever "pull" to the right when braking?

Oddly enough, not really. It just made that metal on metal noise.

A quick update
A quick update. These new brake pads probably saved my life this weekend. I had an incident of road rage against me and someone tried to run me down intentionally (he actually baited me into position). To keep it short, I was following someone and I got ready to turn into my turn lane for my complex. The guy in front of me also turned on his signal, then turned it off and waved me around. When I went around him he promptly flipped me off and drove straight at me. I locked up all the brakes and he missed me by inches, but I was put into facing the curb as I was turning away from him, so I could not get a plate or chase him down (He started jumping from lane to lane through traffic and got away). If I had not gotten these new pads I would not have gotten stopped fast enough and he would have got me.
