What are the best brakes for a P500 used for general purpose trail, organic or semi metallic? From my dirt bike days I kinda remember organic is best for stopping power but wears faster, especially when used for wet muddy rides. Do semi metallic pads wear good with adequate stopping power?

I need to inspect my brass brake pads and rotors after a year of use. No braking issues as yet with them. Got them due to mud riding, but $$$.
