| i have just received a email from a guy who saw i was bidding on some ducati disks on ebay and this is what he has said.
Hi Dave,
Thanks for your e mail and questions, and dont worry, you are not being a pain in asking the questions, as I did too, as I wouldnt risk my life either.I have used the discs over 7000 miles and 5 trackdays at Snetterton, which requires some seriously heavy braking, on my Aprilia RSV-R Factory. The discs are made by an ISO 9001 certified Engineering company, using the latest laser cutting technology to produce the discs, and they are an OE manufacturer to Honda, Suzuki and Yamaha, and supply MAINLY to the commuter market, and are therefore obviously in the Far East. We have researched the market for over a year to provide them with all the information necessary to enable them to manufacture the discs. The braking surface is manufactured from a high carbon stainless steel, designed to cope with temperatures in excess of 600'C. The carrier is manufactured from a high strength aluminium alloy. The discs are fully floating, are 5mm thick (an increase to 6mm results in a 25% weight increase with no performance gain), I PERSONALLY have tested them with Bendix, Brembo and EBC pads, and all are suitable. We offer a 12 month warranty against faulty or defective parts/workmanship. We are only just ready now to begin to roll out the launch, they are at MCN's photo studio next wednesday ready to appear in their 'New ProductsReview' section, so things are still being prepared. The carriers are anodised gold as std, as we felt that they look similar to the Brembo originals. I attach a picture of the 320FC, which is the type required for most Ducatis and Aprilias, but I will need your precise model in order to ensure that you get the correct discs. The first consignment is at sea at present, so we'd ask you to allow 28 days delivery....
I hope that answers all your questions Dave, but please feel free to get back to me with any other queries. The RRP is £275 per pair including VAT, + postage. I look forward to hearing from you.
David
