ZX6RR Rotor info

[smeghead]

Hi y'all

I need some info on stocks rotors but to get it I will destroy one, soooo ... does anyone have a knackered rotor I can have?

Alternatively some kind soul might feel like drilling out one of the buttons on a knackered rotor & measuring the hole dimensions (diameter & thickness).

My aim is to convert my rotors to full floaters so this info is critical in sourcing replacement buttons.

Cheers

.......My aim is to convert my rotors to full floaters so this info is critical in sourcing replacement buttons......

thats a great idea - but have you considered just finding a set of floaters that will bolt straight up to your wheels ? Might save a lot of rooting around.....

Yeah I have, but the conversion is gonna cost about $100 total ($7 per button, 7 per disk) instead of $5-600 for new rotors that are substantially better.

Well worth a liitle rooting around methinks.

All I need now of course is somone with a rooted rotor to mess with

Do you have access to a press that can install the buttons correctly ? Its a pretty critical component of floating rotors, and if they are not installed correctly, they won't *float* at all.........

A good set of 2nd-hand rotors from a wrecker should only come in around the 3 to 4 hundred mark, tops. Probably a bit cheaper if they are from an older model. New ones are costly, no doubt.

Good luck with this project, I will be interested to see how it pans out.

The new buttons are full floating buttons held on by a circlip with a springwasher underneath, just how Brembo do them.

S/H rotors locally in Perth are $450 a set so I'll be damned if I'm gonna spend $225 on a good rotor only to drill it out.

C'mon peeps someones gotta have one somewhere, I think the 04-05 ZX10 might use the same disks.
