Same problem here, did you get an answer?

Whats the part number on the pads?
GasGas went to a smaller Nissin rear caliper in 2010?

The older(pre 10), larger caliper used CR/KX/RM pads. The newer, smaller caliper uses yzf pads.

I'll check my 2013 against my 2010. I'm guessing same pads..

These are the rear pads my 12 takes S3 Racing #187 or EBC# 367 The EBC pads are slightly thicker might require you to leave out the shim and insulator between the pad and piston. Hope this helps.

Typed that into Amazon and looks like 3 different EBC pads using the 367 number.

Yeah three different friction compounds R= common X= carbon, runs cooler I use these for enduro racing. MXS= mx compound.

I wouldn't trust the ebay picture to actually be the shape of the pad.

These are the correct shape http://www.amazon.com/EBC-Brakes-MX...e=UTF8&qid=1388525376&sr=8-4&keywords=EBC+367

The -HH EBC pads are very good pads, a bit pricier though.

Yeah, alot of those pics are just generic ad photos.
