Just out of interest, I am assuming sp1/2 fitting is the same as vtr any one ever heard of these guys

I am in a position to get my storm back on the road if I can find some reasonable discs for the £150 mark, cant afford double that. Don't want to buy junk as already discussed, but I am frustrated and want my storm on the road. I am biking every day, and love my fazer, but I miss the storms go!

So what do you think should I stick to my guns and wait another couple of months and get honda discs, or can someone recommend some discs at the cheaper end that are actually ok??

British made, with a 12 month warranty so if they warp they would go back.

Thoughts?

Probably doesn't make much odds, but not confidence inspiring is it :eek2 Will have to make sure the wheel's the right way round too. Ho hum.

MICK..
But when reversing the brakes are sh1t hot.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

I think those discs from your link are too big, after getting the honda discs and comparing them with the old ones i could tell the older ones seemed more brittle, not with wear but age 8O the feel from the new discs is very good, i know it's frustrating but i would wait and get the originals, as we can see though it's all a matter of opinion, i wish i hadn't tried to get them fixed, waste of money :(
