I run them on mine. Work nicely :)

They're supposed to be the best "standard" brakes.

I use Mintex 1144's with Brembo discs and find them to be excellent, great from cold, really fade resistant and quiet. I had Ferrodo DS2500's before, which took a little longer to get up to temperature, but couldn't get them to fade on the road. the only real down side of them was they were pretty noisey.
