Recommend some front discs please

Sorry for just asking questions but one more for luck. What's the best front discs for the sv's when racing.

EBC Pro Lites. Much rougher grain than std. discs. My braking point was 30 yards later (on the GSXR600) than with std discs with the same pads.

Second on my list are Braking wavey discs but quite a bit heaver.

I take it there discs are better than there pads then. I'll look them up.

Oem everytime. Genuine are £89.34 per disc on the Suzuki racer programme.

pads are a whole different topic.

I ran EBC race on the Pro-lite discs and OEM and the braking difference was the same. 30-35 meters shorter with the Pro-lites. I then changed to DP race pads (very good pads but not available for the SV) and got the same results.

I also tried Ferrodo and PF pads and for me, in Minitwins, the Pro Lite discs and Ferrodo CP211 race pads would be as good as it gets. However, the Ferrodo CP's only work properly from lap 2 on over unless you trail the brake the whole way round the warm up lap to get them Hot Hot Hot.

at about 21 stones in my leathers I was able to outbrake featherweights with the CP211's. Thats a lot of stopping power.

However, you have to get your seating right because on a pointy with the seat raised the bike wanted to flip and the rear would rise, so i couldn't use anywhere near the full braking. On the curvy with a std seat the bike could be braked so much harder as it didn't want to raise the rear.

Personally if i had the choice i'd throw the ebc discs away and use the boxes they came in, least they'd last longer!
As above OEM or another option is Brembo series oro discs from Bike torque

im a bit of a novice with sv"S, but i use stealth disks on the front of our cb500, and verity uses them on her rvg 250 we find them great, and mutch cheaper, 2 week waiting tho rob

What about these black shadow discs any good?

Same cost as OEM..go with OEM. The stock discs are very very good and perform plenty well enough for the SV.

unfortunately it looks like they won't do them for the carby only the pointy on the scheme as it says it only deals with 03 - on. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
