That looks so skinny, and so wavy, that the pad can not be totally used at any time. No?
Beautiful bike though mate.

Agreed.

Also I thought it might help with the sticking piston syndrome..............but it doesn't seem to. Hence I'm on my 3rd wavy now.

Love that one on the race bike.

Thanks (i am female BTW ).

Dont use the rear brake!..well will if really need to like the front brake fails. Chose the Talon Braking disc as its very light due to there not being much of it!. It does though work fine if needed.

How much are those then SV650Racer.

Have to have one of those next time...............if they fit a curvy too.

Yup they do them for the curvy fitment too. About £49..alot cheaper than the Galfer ones which i dont think look so good.

Damnit, I 've just ordered another Braking. Around the same money as the Talon. Well heres hoping it wears out quickly too.

Thanks for the info.

The Galfer ones don't look amazing, it's true But IMO they're a better disc for people who actually do use the rear, the Talons have a fearsome rep for warping when used more extensively, since they're naturally less strong and have less surface area. But then, on track I barely use mine so the Talon would be miles better for that.
