    Can you fit the later bigger rotors and daul pistons calipers on a 90?

    Just curious if I can swap the later model bigger rotors and calipers from a 93 and later to a 90? thanks.

    Motomaster rotors

    Anyone running these? They look like a quality piece, and attractive to boot, but I'd like to find some feedback before spilling $250 per side on em. All I know for sure is that my stockers suck and I'm in the market. Suggestions welcome.

    Will rotors work on both sides in the front?

    Is there a difference between rotors in front? Can I order two and they would fit either side?

    Front brake rotors - which years are interchangeable?

    Did a search but didn't turn up what I was looking for. What front brake rotors will swap? For example, I would assume 85-96 to swap, right? I know they changed things in the later years, but what's the most recent model front rotors I can put on my '85 (excluding aftermarket, for now)?

    Warped brake rotors: what are my options?

    I'm sure my rotors are warped or that they were damaged in a front end mishap before I got the bike. They pulse dramatically. Naturally, I can't deal with this because front brakes are critical. Local machine shop could probably try to straighten them but I'm not sure it's worth it. They are...

    Floating Rotors - non floating

    Can anyone tell me what the benefit of using a floating rotor as to a non floating rotor. Do you get better braking distance??, Are certain calipers only made for a floating rotors. Thanks, Ron :ummm:

    Bike now sways side to side after doing Busa calipers and R1 rotors

    If you have read my other threads you would see that I just put on Hayabusa calipers, R1 rotors, and used Sean Morley's adapters. I had some trouble with a little grinding going on. Turns out one of the rotors is a little oblonged. It was grinding out the inside of the caliper. Now that I...

    Pics of Hayabusa Calipers and late model rotors on a 85

    Here are some pics of Hayabusa calipers, R1 rotors, and Sean Morley adapters on a 85 Vmax. It sucks that one of the rotors I got is warped though. Now I have to take everything back off and get some more rotors.:bang head:

    Rusty Galfer Rotors

    I installed a Galfer rear wave rotor this winter and it's getting a fair amount of surface rust just from sitting in my unheated garage. They've never been wet. It's just cosmetic but what the heck, I don't want to have to steel wool my rotor every time there's a bike night. Getting in the...

    Can I reuse my stock brakelines when I put on Hayabusa calipers and R1 rotors?

    I've got the Hayabusa calipers and R1 rotors waiting in my garage. Once I get the adapters in the mail I'm going to swap them out. Can I reuse my stock brake lines and just hook them up to the Hayabusa calipers until I buy some Galfers lines? Also, do I just reuse the old rotor mounting...

    What year R1/R6 brakes and rotors?

    I am going to get the adapters and was wondering: What year R1 or R6 calipers do I need? Can I use 2003 R1 rotors on a 85 Max? If not which used rotors can I get besides the newer model stock V-Max rotors?

    Anybody using wave rotors on front??

    If so, how do you like them? Better, worse or the same as stock? China's starting to flood Ebay with cheap rotors and I'm tempted to try a pair.

    Replacement Rotors

    What is the best choice of replacement rotor for the rear of a V-max. I would appreciate as much input from members about brand choices, type of rotor e.g. solid or floating, suppliers, pricing etc. Need to replace a warped rear rotor and may as well evolve the bike.

    Machining rotors

    Can a car parts/auto repair shop machine rotors or is it a different animal ?

    Best Brake Rotors for the Vmax?

    What are the best Rotors for the Vmax (size, construction etc.). I'd like to hear from members who have non-standard brake rotor upgrades on standard forks either pre or post '93, it doesn't matter because I'd like to focus on the rotors. Does anyone run 320mm rotors? Good? Bad?

    Drilled rotors ?

    Mine is a 93' with solid rotors. I want to know if anyone has drilled the cooling holes in them with any success. If so where did you get the drill pattern from ? Home job or did you send out ? Any tips would be appreciated for sure. I got them off right now so it would be a good time to...

    R6 rotors

    Is it possible to use a set of front rotors from an 03 R6 on an 88 Max. If anyone has successfully done this, what parts needed to be swapped. I know some guys have used R1 rotors, but I am unsure if the R6's are a possibility. I can get a new set really cheap and hope they will fit.
