78 cb750f rotor options
« on: August 05, 2016, 10:11:24 AM »
I have a wobble in my front rotors. Should I just get them turned true or should I look at aftermarket rotors?

What are the aftermarket options and you guys have any opinions on them? They seem kinda pricey to me.

I think my best value would be getting the rotors turned down and then finding some decent pads. what are some your favorite pads for added braking performance?

I'm running organic pads right now and they feel like they're made out of cork. No bite.

Depending on how much wobble you have, having them turned is a good route to take. They are over-built anyway.

those drilled ones look like a good option.

Just make sure it's definitely your rotor and not something in the hub causing the entire wheel to wobble.

It's mostly felt in the feedback of the brake rotor and slow speed surging during braking.
