Brake pads on polished rotors

I am having polished rotors installed on Monday on my '08 Ultra. Are the stock brake pads going to torch the polished pads or should I have them put on something else? If so, what do they cost for the front pair if you have something else to suggest?

You'll be fine with stock pads but with new chrome rotors I would install new pads too. New pads will seat better and the chrome rotors will have a more consistent wear pattern. Maybe go with Lyndall pads for much less dusting....less chrome polishing for you too.
