Rotor Recommendations

AntiHero · Feb 7, 2016

At least one stock rotor on my bike is warped. Lots of drag in one spot while rotating wheel. I took the front end apart and put it all back together twice to no effect (after hitting the rotors with steel wool).

Brembo HPK is compatible with ABS/TC Triggers (I believe). Is T-Drive as well? Any advantage of going with one over the other? Pad recommendations?

I'll be tracking my bike, but most miles will be on the street.

I had the HPK 330mm free floating disk that doesnt have a lot of drag. The Tdrive is 320mm I believe and I prefer the 330 over the 320mm even though the T drives are supposed to be superior technology.

Did you mic them to measure the thickness? Could be a brake dust buildup not letting the caliper seat all the way. I've had to clean my calipers before for the same reason. Worth a check before you drop the coin.

Galfer Superbike Wave Rotors

The constant leading edges from the cut outs enable unprecedented amount of grip. Absolutely no fade with great feel breaking into the apex. I replaced my Brembo rotors after they warped. The Galfer superbike wave rotors are the best performance upgrade I have made to my 1098R, and I have upgraded everything

I also use Galfer's Sintered brake pads.

Do they have the special bobbins for the traction control pickup on the right hand disc?
Wanting a spare set of discs for wet wheels.

i have the Brembo HPK Rotors with Brembo Z04 pads.

They are pretty awesome but i also think the base set up was fantastic for a stock set up.
