Does anyone know anywhere that can skim brake discs? if possible??

I bought some new ones off ebay and they are "not straight"! (can't return them for the reason that the guy is no longer a registered user)

Thanks....

Wouldn't suggest it. There's only a 0.5mm wear limit on them when new.

How not straight? - Actually as much as to un-balance the front wheel quite a lot (impossible to ride over 100mph! without the fairing feeling like it's gonna fall off....)

So no options with these then!??

If they were meant to be NEW and are in fact warped then I'd of thought you have a clear case for a refund as unfit for purpose from Ebay.
You must file a report within 60 days sadly - if youve paid by credit card you might stand a better chance.

If you have details of the t*sser (sorry seller) and he wont play ball then I'm working my way through a similar case and have ended up here:
