Tester said didn’t I notice it pulsing through the brake lever? To be truthful..No not really but as I am due my Tax I wasn’t go large on the way to the MOT garage plus I pass a plod traffic division garage on the way :-)

Pro twins have quoted £187 for the "flower pattern" (not in stock) replacement brembo disc or if I go for the "straight spoke" brembos they are £150, but will need the pair

Still need to know which of the buggers is warped!

So very quick... what ya think

1. Always replace both disc rather than having one part worn and the other new - YES

2. Replace only the faulty one - NO

3. Buy some wave pattern (gaffer?) discs instead, for the front...Any suggestions which ones work best? - Try e-bay? Galfer have good reports.

4. Anyone got a front disc or discs for sale that isn’t knackered? - I have some you can borrow (straight spoke Brembo)

b0ll0cks looking forward to riding her this week :-(

Cheers for all your help

P.S. Finns wont pass MOT if it doesnt have standard cans on it..Unless it is a SPS that came with the termis on them. just so you know.
Try Pretty's in Partridge Green W.Sx

I have added some comments.

Good luck,

RX
