Thanks, thats what I was looking for. Perhaps its out of my price range still, but maybe I'll spring for a set if I find a "good deal". I just got a set of 6-pots from somebody else here so I figured I'd complete the package so to speak.

Mot- Do you ever ride your bike or do you just clean it all day? Just kidding, but thats one of the cleanest swing arm/rear barke assembly I've seen. Was it you that powdercoated all the bits?

I do ride it ...honest, the old bus has about 50,000 miles on it now !! I do between 4-6k a year on it...but I do clean it a LOT and my mates do take the urine out of me for it ;-)

I painted the torque arm and caliper hanger, the caliper was powder coated when I rebuilt it, whilst I was there it got new braided line, pad pins S/S bleed nipple etc etc etc

See I just give them all the ammo they need !!!!

I have a set of waves on the Super III. I purchased them off ebay brand new in the box. IIRC I only paid about $450 for the set.

motT3 you do have a lovely shiney pipep and rim combination going on there! lovely to see!

I can recommend ABE. I've got their dics on the front and rear of my '94 T3 - though they're not wavy. The thickness of the discs is good and the grade of steel gives good progressive bite and feel. I have a one-off set on my yamaha also (big supermoto thing) and they're excellent on that too.

I have a new set of Galfer's on my Speedy that I put on last week and if I get the right pads from Galfer this time I will be putting on my Alcon six-pots that I have now. I won't get to break them in for a little while yet, I am going to put a set of 39mm FCR's on it and the bike will not leave the garage till it has them. I also have a 2005 Rocket III that I picked up this winter which is taking up some of my time but who's complaining!

What is the purpose of a wave rotor? Not heard of them before.
