The standard discs are perfectly fine and surprisingly cheap for OEM parts. About a 100 quid each.
However I've got Wavys on my curvy. There is a marginal improvement IMO on the steering and braking is certainly no worse. If you feel the need for Wavys then I suggest Galfer or Braking Wave brands. Stay clear of the cheap ones advertised on Ebay HTH |

I'd stick with OE probably, but as Pete's said, Galfer or Braking should be fine. EBC discs have had some mixed reviews...

i got wavey on Dave and standard ones on Suze...can't say I can tell the difference. Between you and me, i think its all bling thing with wavy ones. But I'm not a bloke, bling things always work better....obviiously

My OE left disc, "dished" at about 12K. Pretty poor.
Got EBC's. At this time of year all I can say is , they work. ![]() ![]() |

I've had some EBC-discs, they're just briliant!
I do have a rear EBC curved (unused) for sale to match your new ones. ![]() http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.php?t=101580 |
