is anyone stunting with a rear galfner wave rotor? especially with a full throttle handbrake setup

all my 636 rotors are toast and all the ones I have found on ebay are also toast.

I found a great price on a wave rotor and pads just wondering if anyone hase them and can post up some feedback thanks

 

anyone?

 

They should outlast stock. im sure they are manufactured with tighter toloerances too. We all know they will perform better by staying cooler...

 

I have had them on a gixxer 1k and they are the *****.....do lines and pads too. They were better on my 01 than the 06 stock by far. Rear isn't as noticeble but it may be too grabby for some I like responsive and tight break so poss the stocker could be better (more Cush) but endos will improve and they rip it right up and I suck at them so its a whole new curve.

 

i think most the riders I ride with have the wwave rotor. I know NumberTwo does

 

Any new rotor is going to be grabby due to the textures from manufacturing, they will wear in and not be so grabby, yes rotors have to break in too.

 

thanks guys I'm gonna try a rear rotor and pad set out

 

I've wanted to get a set of front and rear forever but they're so expensive

 

Yes......but worth it. For my gixxer it was about a G for the rotors HHpads and lines. I scoped up a 97 gsxr750 for 500 bucks sold it a coupple of days later and put the 500 back in my pocket and rolled the G into Waves....





and BTW its Galfer not Galfner

 

wave rotors are def worth the penny. cool faster, wont warp great stopping ability

 

yea I just realized I spelled it wrong.

i got a rear rotor and pad set coming.



yea nags its sick how much money they get for brake rotors. someones getting paid bigtime.


But at least for my bike the galfer is cheaper than oem for the rear brake

 

How much was the rear rotor?

 

you can use 2005/06 636 petal (wave kinda style) on your 03/04 wheels. u just have to space your front calipers 10mm cause they are 10mm larger diameter.

 

Teach uses a Galfer rotor with a Fullthrottleinc Handbrake on his 600rr. He says that it feals just like stock.

129 sounds straight with pads too me.

a friend who works for cycle gear here in ct is figuring out his cost for me tomorrow.

thanks for the help everyone that sucks what arron said but at least they dont feel worse than stock,they look cool,and are cheaper.

at least for the rear its worth a try

i'm all set with spacing my front calipers (its prolly fine but I get weired out doing stuff like that

i'm not trying to die doing endos in case something goes wrong(too paronoid maybe)

i'll post up when I get them but it wont be for a while cuz the bike they are going on is down for the count I blew my motor, ughh I love the 03-04 636 but I think im on like motor number 5 right maybe someday I will learn and stop burning out on rev limeter all the time hmm prolly not

 

practice what you preach, your still useing those piece of **** stock KYB forks, that's what i'd be really worried about...

and it looks like you have that bad Luck Blue model ahaha

 

Greg im still on my original 636 motor i hope it does'nt blow up. Why was your motor ticking so bad last week? Did it start gradually or just crap out at once?
