Wavy discs

Post by Dgeoff33 » Sat Feb 11, 2012 8:45 pm

I have a few sets of Arashi wavy front discs for the Honda 400s coming over from China with some radiators, anybody want a set?

They should be about £125 delivered, maybe a little cheaper.

Let me know if you fancy a set.

Yeah I'll take a set, already got my name down for a set of rads too on the other thread.

Slowly slowly accumulating parts for a resto/upgrade when my 2 year restriction ends :D

I'm not that knowledgable about brake discs, what is the general opinion on these? How do they rank compared to OEM and EBC, for example?

To be perfectly honest, I wouldn't touch them with a barge pole if they're from China. I've had Chinese discs before when money was tight. Complete false economy. Soft as shit. They wear quickly and warp easily.
Conventional wisdom says to know your limits. To know your limits you need to find them first. Finding your limits generally involves getting in over your head and hoping you live long enough to benefit from the experience. That's the fun part.

A mate has a set on his L-0 GSX-R 1000 race bike and hasn't had an issue with them.
