Got my rotor from speedracer
« on: December 14, 2009, 12:59:44 PM »
Based on recommendations from this forum I sent my front disk rotor from my 71 CB750 to speedracer for resurfacing. I forget the thread and couldn't find it when I searched. Wonder why. Anyway here's the picture of the rotor. Center was bead blasted and I think I'll leave it that way. Pretty cool huh?

Who is speedracer aka "RR"?

I searched but didn't turn up anything.

Very nice work. A good resource I'd say.

and when the rotor is in the 0.03mm (thickness) range, its not only a "great looking job", its a great job.
