As Nelly says... I did the lot a couple of years ago as they where getting quite loose and you can buy diffferent size shims to take away some slack.

I cant fault them but you must use soft pads as it seems the ones that have 'exploded??' were probably due to overheating / hard pads??maybe??

Re - anodising alli parts never gives the same finish as the original.
The results are unpredicatable, and you may get a finish you dont like.
doing it again, will have no effect on the thickness.

Well if they are good enough for moto GP they are good enough for me. Just keep a close eye on the discs and check for cracks.

JHP have had a few fail on them in the past, and they are not good enough for Moto GP, they use carbon in the dry and cast STAINLESS in the wet, which is what brembo now supply.

Personally I sued cast iron for years and only ever had one set crack and that was on a Norton Commando back in the last century!
