ive got a warped rear rotor

Post by 2002r1150r »

so ive determined that i need to replace my rear rotor..where can i find a good used one or must i go to the dealer for a new one??? I know the rear is practical useless on my non-abs model but the pulsating feeling is really annoying when i do use it. thanks in advance :-k

However rotors are not that expensive and I would suggest you get yourself some aftermarket rear rotor which is even cheaper than the one from your dealer. I would not buy a used rotor ...

Kind regards

Nope. At least I've never heard of anyone turning a motorcycle rotor. Usually it's a replace it kind of repair.
