Hi. DME cut my stock rotors I think about one lbs 508-496-3312.
I'll look them up
I watched a SBK race the other day and when they were showing the bikes in the pits, many of them had EBC rotors.

I went 217 at Loring with ZERO brakes
Had a frozen caliper so I pryed the pads back after they had overheated and boiled the fluid
rear brake system had no fluid to start with

Just curious why? What are you trying to achieve?
I am going to shave weight off the bike wherever I can. Starting with rotational mass. I'm going in on this bike. I want a street killer. But I also want it to be a sleeper.
Putting a turbo carbon fiber anywhere I can besides the main fairings. Replacing nuts and screws bolts with titanium. Lightweight rotors rims sprockets. Carbon airbox gas aluminum gas tank.
I like the plan , going to be a killer streeter by the sounds once you are done . I found a set to order , Sicom ceramic rotors for my ZX14R , but I am still waiting on them for best part of year so far , and could be another year till delivery ... sure hope I dont kick the bucket while waiting lol .
I didn't want to spend the money but I thought to myself that if I invest in this bike the proper way I'll have a comfortable lightweight missile that handles and has a large fuel capacity. And that can ride a passenger comfortably. The main knock people have is that it's too heavy and can't corner. Well I already corner it just fine but with upgrades it will be a Unicorn
I have done that with my Gen 2 Busa , but standard donk just woolich tuned . Just weighed it fully fueled at 230kg , still got a couple of things sitting around to fit , like Yoshi aluminum tank . My thing turns well for a big girl , BST wheels and full Ohlins , here is a current pic .
Damn that's sexy bro I love it!!! I see that brembo with air scoops. I see that carbon front fender and mirrors. Do and you send me any info of where to find those.
I like how subtle but sexy that bike is. That's exactly how I want mine to look. That only someone who knows bikes well can't tell what work has been done
That bike is 2012 L2 , bone stock when I got it end of 2013 3400km . It runs a DME aluminum subframe , lithium battery , aluminum kickstand and mount . Running standard tank with quick release mounts and stock bodywork , with carbon fairing trim and inner panels , pyramid plastics rear cowl cushion . Standard heat shield wrapped airbox , short stacks , woolich tuned 195bhp / 114 ftlb motor . Magical Racing carbon mirrors , cut F.Fabrai screen . BST front Black Diamond 5 spoke with ceramic bearings , Braketech 330mm Axis rotors , Brembo GP4-RX calipers . Fren Tubo Carbon lines and ceramic pads . Ohlins FGRT208 forks , CNC Racing carbon ducts . Agras top triple clamp , Gilles Vario Clipons , RCS Brembo brake and clutch pumps . CNC Racing carbon reservoirs . Agras carbon front guard , TWM fuel cap with Clever Wolf carbon tank protecter . Carbon frame guards ( forget maker ) Agras modified rearsets , reverse shift configured with quick shifter Cordona . Striker swingarm , with Agras rear uderslung bracker , Brembo billet P2 / 84MM caliper , Discacciati rear rotor . KFactory 47t sprocket , Healtech speedo healer ,EK 530 CHAIN . Front / swingarm pivot / rear axle in titanium , full engine mount bolts and covers in titanium , suspension linkage bolts in titanium , KFactory adjustable links , BST 6.25" rear with ceramic bearings , Full titanium and aluminum bolt replacement on all areas of bike , including all Brembo caliper factory bolts / rotor bolts , cush dive / spocket bolts / kickstand bolts , fork bolts / bodywork bolts , controls , subframe , rearsets and tank mounts all titanium / aluminum . Rear Ohlins TTX36 , Brocks CT Meg Ti exhaust . Think that might be clost to it mate .
