« on: July 02, 2005, 12:57:18 PM »
anyone know where to get a
replacement rear disc
for a better price?

DISK,REAR BRAKE
518028-001
$179.4

the manual says its serviceable
but nobody wants to touch it around here
5.5mm .22inches = thickness
.3mm ,012inches = runout (i think my disc fails here)

Chaparral lists in there paper catalog an EBC stock replacement rear brake disk PN 361-2879 for US$130.99.  They also list an EBC Pro-Lite rotor PN 361-2527 that is contoured on the outside (looks cool) for US$125.99.

I could not get it to show online, but you should be able to call 1-800-841-2960 with the above part numbers to find out more.  See the pics at http://www.ebcbrakes.com/motorcycle.html.

Isn't it cheaper to go to machine shop and have it grinded?

I don't think there's enough material on a motorcycle rotor to have them machined. If I'm not mistaken a new rotor is only 5mm thick and must be replaced when it wears to 4mm.

I guess you missed this part?

Probably because most shops that can resurface the rotor don't have the tooling to cuck it up in their machines.

its better to ditch the stock one anyway
the stock one is way too heavy
all of the aftermarket discs I found are lighter

i went with the braking brand from cyclepages
and its working great!

just becareful when you remove the rotors
keep that hex in straight - dont strip the bolt heads
just use lots of penetrating solution and heat
