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

They don't have anything in stock?

Check out my oil filter forensics thread!                     Offended? Click here
"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Forgot about those

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.
