I agree. Any chance a Buell front end could be bolted onto our Thruxton's?

Hey T-up, I like that new signature pic. I have to get something appropriate for myself. I wish we could load our own avatars, but I suppose a sig pic will have to do.

The wave rotors are obtainable. Here's the front:

The rear needs to be special ordered. Thrux-ton-up knows the details.

Rodburner - wave rotor details: Ordered a wave rotor from cyclepages.com for the front. Called Braking LLC the US distributor and there are no wave rotors for the rear in the US - no requests for one. So they special ordered one for me. Cost is 139.00. The bad news - coming from Italy - will take 4-6 weeks. Good news they do not bill you until they ship to you. Talk to Mike at 973-743-9049 ext 1334 if you are interested in the rear as well.

John

By the way cyclepages is out too, on back order for 2 months.

I'm not positive Steve - but its gotta be do-able - most things are if you throw enough time and money at it. Could be as simple as ordering a thrux floating rotor and thrux caliper of your choice. I have the pre tech six piston with EBC HH pads on the bike now - waiting impatiently for the wave rotors - why do those Italians take so long to ship things? I would call you dealer and see what the differences between the two bikes are. You may not even need a caliper just the floating rotor - but I don't know for sure.

That's bad news. Did they charge your card or will they wait until the rotors arrive?
