Minimum rear disc thickness 998?

Ray · 10-May-2009, 00:14

Anyone know what the minimum rear disc thickness is for a 998/996 Please?

Couldn't see anything stamped into it.

It looks like it is getting a bit thin.

Don't wanna go aftermarket, I'm guessing an new OEM disc is about £95??

TIA

Ray.

Plenty of good (un)used rear discs on EBay all the time!

You is da man!!

Just got another fitted and the old one says min thickness is 5.4 mm, Gawd knows why I couldn't spot it when it was on the bike.

Done a coupla hundred miles today and it's bedded nicely for cadwell.

Another point of view.....My MOT tester scoffed at the thought of changing discs based on the stamped min thickness after I took my bike in with new ones. His comment was that so long as the disc is not warped or cracked he wouldn't fail the bike irrespective of how thick the disc is.
