Brakes

Post by DAQ421 »

I am looking to replace the pads (Front & Rear) and the Rear Rotor (seems the last owner ran the pads down far enough to groove the rotor at some point) on my 04' R1150R..

Is there is better than stock rear rotor?

Are there any pads to avoid?

Thanks..

I have been buying brake pads from dennis kirk and have had good luck with them. I cannot recommend an aftermarket rotor, but a factory replacement is not that expensive.
