Title: Need new front brake rotors
Post by: V-Twin_Fan on May 14, 2012, 10:03:13 AM
Last weekend I slipped when loading my monster on a trailer and the le [bang]ft front disk got pinched between the tire rack.  Now I have a bent front rotor , any suggestions on what brand of rotor to buy.  I would like to go OEM but the place I looked was selling them for 530.00 a rotor.  I found that I could buy 2 new after market ones for 320 - 240 for one rotor any info would be a lot of help.

They sell OEM Brembo and other A/M rotors.

Better price for a single than you got.

Sweet!  I searched for about an hour and found nothing under 500.  Thanks for the help, they have them for a much better price.  Now I just have to wait until they get some.   ;D

I have no complaints with them except for the tight buttons.  I took mine off and pounded them to loose them a bit. Much better.

I do that to the Brembos too.

Seemed the OP was somewhat price conscious.

I don't think he wants to drop ~$600 on rotors.
