929-954 break rotors?

Post by grumpyfrog »

I'm in need of break discs\rotors for the front end for my 929 swap and have checked a few of the suppliers to check the part numbers. Apparently they are the same. can anyone else confirm if they are or not as I know "SOMEONE"on here that has 954 one's for sale?

yes, those were the ones I were referring to. AP and I had had a conversation about this, still confused about why some dealers have them under the same order code?
will just have to be certain to ensure that I get 320mm one's.
Cheers all.

Same reason that you can buy fairings for VTR 1000F SP1, SP2... They are too dumb to know the difference...

929 and 954 both had 330mm rotors, SP-1 and SP-2 used 320mm rotors. All use the same bolt pattern and offset I believe (99.9% sure)...

Both the 929 and 954 had 330mm Rotors / Discs

The 929 had a black centre carrier with the 954 having a gold one

Before the 929 they had 310mm fitted and after the 954 they used 310mm again on the RR4 RR5 and then 320mm again on the RR6 - onwards

310mm rotors were used in 98-99 only, previous to that, they ran 298 (or 296, depending on who you ask) just like the VTR.
