Hey, import owners, which brake pads?

I'm in need of some new pads for my bike. It's an import (red frame, white bodywork- you know, one of the fast ones
) so has Brembo calipers. Where the buggery do I get pads from for them? I don't have a part number for them.
Ta.
edit: Are they the same calipers that were on the XJR400?

Thanks Dave
From that it looks like the pads are the same as lots of recent bikes.

No probs should help those of us with the old n gold brakes, mine work very well with just 2 fingers on the lever, oh and braided lines of course.

Interestingly, yes you can
All TRXs used 100mm calipers.
The Brembos are fine though, they just need a smaller diameter m/c as 5/8" (15.8mm) is too big. A Brembo 15mm m/c would be just right but they're pretty scarce.
