Just put a set of these on my bike.

They seem really good to me.;) They are indeed fully floating and Deej is right. The bite these things have is really good. Much better than my old semi floating Brembo discs.

Hello mate,

Yep I was in your neck of the woods but only got my bike back in one piece on the last day. So only a few test rides in my workshop overalls and an old 15 year pee pot for a lid.:D How tasteful!!!;)

Bikes still down in cornwall at my fathers workshop as I havent finished with it yet. Still got some more mods to work on but I am back in London now.

Ttrerulefoot Road, what bliss. Thats a good old run from Torpoint. I remember it well. I always try to test it out when I down in the summer.

Roll on the summer...................Laterz.

DC.;)

Anyway probably an idiot question, but whats the differnece between semi floating and fully floating, i assumed the originals were fully floating so these ones may not fit, but i guess i am wrong now :puzzled:

Can someone enlighten me to the difference?

I needed to ask too...

Frank the full floaters have rotors that are mounted to the carrier allowing a bit of free play, the semi floating discs have rotors mounted to the carrier with the edition of a stiffly sprung washer that takes out the free movement but still allows it to move when enough force is applied.
ON the OEM Ducati discs the Fully floates have Iron rotors as opposed to the stainless mix of the mon floaters hence them going rusty at this time of year.
My Braking Waveys are excellent discs, I have used them on both road and track and am very happy with them

ah good so im not the only fik one here :lol:

Thanks

Mine finally arrived today - impressive quality but I'm a bit surprised by just how much movement there is of the disc on the spider. Also - the gap between the two isnt equidistant all the way around.

Still, I'm looking forward to fitting them - eventually !!!

Sideways movement is good, rotational movement is bad and is also an MOT fail i think.
