Aftermarket brake disc opinions?

Brakes do more than slow you down YC, or not if it's an SV

Lighter discs are supposed to be advantageous to handling. I rarely used my SV's brakes but the Braking Wavy's looked fabulous IMO.

Anyway what problem is Dave numbers gonna have? They make the rest of the bike look tired maybe?

I must have missed that part of my vehicle design course, what else do brakes do?
Lighter discs are good for handling, suspension etc. but for the difference in weight between a heavy disc and a light one I doubt you or I could notice.

Problem Dave might have is speedo needle wibbling due to changing frequency from odd disc magnet spacing.

Stoppy is just what happens when F(static,rear) - (Mass*Decel*H)/wheelbase = 0

Which is function of slowing down, quickly

Further, the stock master is the same Brembo item used on most bikes upto the radial revolution... incase you thought it was a cheaper item?



Anyway, dave, how are the disc's? Everything back together?

One other question, how long you have to wait for order to be delivered?

Cheers!

It is cheaper item compared to top of line RCS or whatever else

Can't disagree. Oh well another item on the list huh.

And when you get your radial MC i will nab your old one off you (for some ££)

Might be a while Barwel but sure.

cool
