Ordered up a new wavy disc and sintered pads for the rear and a new disc guard for the front  :)

I've been hesitant to put my drilled rotor on the back, heard horror stories about people getting dirt plugged in the holes and actually wearing out brake pads faster. :(

fitted my new Yamaha SE wavy rear disc and streamline pads.  Wanna go for a ride but it's not stopped raining all day and I can't be bothered to get her muddy.   :gunny:

Ive never had problems with my rear overheating so I dont even consider it. I need a new rear rotor though, mine is worn into from being there for so long.

Ive been on the fence since this big 'ol girl overheated her front rotor at the GNCC. May have been a bearing problem but her wheel fell off, front left rotor disc collapsed into pieces and the bearing stayed seized and completely marred on the front spindle. It was a sight to see. I figure either the bearing wasnt packed right or she overheated the rotor trying to stop herself, that was no easy task for her quad im sure.

Man.....she was a big gal.

Krandall

Arent the fronts slotted even on the old beasts? ??? makin me think. I can't remember now.... I scored an se rear rotor a while back for the price of shipping basically, just been sitting on the shelf since. If you want a drilled one (its a stock one...) let me know, you can have it. :)

While we're talking about rotors and stuff.  When I was fitting my new Yamaha SE wavy rear disc I noticed it had 'BRAKING' written on it.  So I looked it up on the net and found these people...

They seem reasonably priced also.the € 76.00 is $100usd and is cheaper than what motosport has oem rotors listed for :)

Ya JVR. Had to pull the header to get it in.. It's a good thing that I did this Mod the pickup tube had crap all over it (Like a gray mud) So I cleaned it real good and reinstalled it.. $99.00 shipped
The pic is on the flat track at CAW..

Krandall

sweet! and yea. I don't think many people pay attention to that pickup tube. That's a good catch now. Would only create issues down the road

Krandall
