Are you looking for NOS or just different ones? I see you're in Toronto and there is a large wrecker just east of the city,(name escapes me at the moment) look them up in the phone book. Used ones are available everywhere. I have had several, but at the moment I'm out

Nitrous Oxide rotors - they give advanced stopping power at the press of a button!  ;D

OK then seriously...New Old Stock - original new parts for the bike as standard that have been on the shelf for a while...

They are pretty clean and smooth, maybe a small line or two in them, I can give em a quicky polish on the lathe.

Do you already have one on the bike?
