NC23 rear disc

Post by cress87 » Wed Apr 30, 2008 10:17 pm

Chaps,

I need a new rear disc because mine is slightly warped. Does anybody know how much they cost from Honda? Where is the best place to get them?

I've also seen these rear discs. Has anybody used them and are they any good? They seem very cheap, perhaps too cheap if you catch my drift...

Thanks in advance. ;)

I'd say too many holes for the price they might crack, but how much do you use the rear brake?

True...I'm just debating whether it's worth the extra ~£30 for an EBC pro-lite one? :?

It's worth a quick check before replacing. Ensure you do not have any corrosion or paint flaking on the rear wheel - where the disk mounts to it. If you do - it will deform the disk slightly - so it will act like a warped disk.

A quick clean up & remount the disk - could sort it.

get a breakers one. You should be using the front brake, not the rear. the rear is just for slowing or speed controlling at low speeds. A rear should last the life of the bike.
