Re: Disc fitment
Just email them for the OS diameter. Some Blade ones are 330mm, not sure which models though.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

Not bad for £150 a pair.

Re: Disc fitment
Look good spec, Joker.
The only thing that concerns me a little is the nickel plating.
That will eventually wear through, (and while it's worn in places it's likely to chop pads up, until worn through) and then the discs will rust if left damp.
Don't think that's what Honda have done, as they don't corrode when left wet- presumably stainless of one grade or another.
I know that you'll get a better grip (coefficient of friction) with plain steel than stainless, but as at first you'll be running on a nickel surface, I have no idea of how good they'll be on that.
Nickel is harder than steel, though, which is a good start. Wonder what plating thickness they've gone for?
I really don't know what difference any of this will make- possibly none and they're a good choice. Certainly good for the money.
Anyone else got anything to offer?

Re: Disc fitment
Id Google them discs first before you buy them, you may be shocked! lol
No cheap aftermarket disc will ever be as good as OEM, and is braking the one area you want to skimp on?

I would rather buy used storm ones than buy cheap discs, especially the Hong Kong type/style.
