If you are looking for cool looks, you can get rotors plated all over but the swept surface. It will prevent that rusted look from showing through your open wheel. I forget the manufacturer, but it i

It is interesting that all (?) motorcycle rotors are drilled, but not vented, and that most cars are vented but not drilled. Bikes clearly need to reduce unsprung weight (drastically lighter vehicle

probably, yes. the main point to cross drilling is, as i said, to provide a place for material between the pad and the rotor to go. balanced against a reduction in the mass of the heat sink. i haven'

Yamaha used very narrow vented rotors on some mid-80s bikes. My '85 RZ500 (a 500cc two-stroke V-4 GP "replica") had them. I couldn't tell the difference between them and regular rotors. Eric /// unsu

To add my experience with cross drilled rotors. I used to own a '80 Honda Accord. It had a problem with warping the front rotors (maybe I braked too hard)... After the second set of rotors, I install

I have a more marketing-centric view of this.... Motorcycle rotors are drilled because you can easily see them and they look way cool. Do you recall when street bikes first started coming out with re

supposed to reduce the gyroscopic effect of the wheel to enable quicker turning. what I want to take off is the (finally-on-a-production-bike) rim-mounted rotors on the new buell. scott /// unsubscri
