I know a lot of people are replacing their stock rotors with the T-Drive or Braketech in 320 or 330mm. As an option check out the TK SBK rotors. Direct replacement for the V4-V2 in 330mm. Very cool design with a bit of tech in there. Currently used by several WSBK/BSB teams and Kyle Wyman. Competitively priced with Brembo and Braketech. Mariani at TK is an exceptional individual. Top shelf stuff here

Good timing. I'm due for new rotors and was planning on replacing with T-Drives when I did the GP4-RX caliper swap. I'll check these out. Did you just buy direct from TK?
 
Struggling to see why other manufacturers have not drilled holes in the discs angled towards the airflow when rotating, as with these brake discs, presumably to increase any cooling effect.
 
topolino, correct, directional cooling. Im not going to guess at the efficiency if any but i have seen some other companies starting to adopt similar ideas.
Rogue, yes they are available direct from TK. Mariani was smart enough to take a few sets for the Duc home with him when they had to close so he has the rotors. Here is his contact info

Hey I recently change my breaks an later that day it didn't want to go into gear. Could that be a cause to low break fluid or Air in the lines. Needed to be bleed?
 
No it’s a standard T drive arrangement. The retention buttons are hidden by and integrated into the carrier. This rotor with the Z06 pads and the monoblocks is the best setup I have ever tried. I was skeptical that the steel used in different rotors was not that much of a factor but I am pretty sure I was wrong. In the last year I have had the Brembo T drives, Braketech iron, Braketech CMC and the TKs. Z06 pads in all of them, same calipers and master. TK for me is stunning. Brembo T drive, a close second, Braketech Iron 3rd, Braketech CMC not so hot and no pun intended but I think that rotor is best suited on a track bike with some heat. Anyhow if you’re looking for something a little different TKs are a great rotor.
 
Excellent yea that’s a good shot of the button arrangement. Super nice guys at TK. Very helpful, accessible and willing to do custom configurations.
 
HOLY HELL, those are expensive . They look really nice and that they have alot of thought invested . Plus I'm a sucker for parts that you don't see on everyone's bike. My rotors are getting thin so I checked into them. I'm not a track guy, just want to be fancy on the streets. They are definitely out of my league and my daily riding. Really cool though
