Rear rotor from other bikes?

[warmseth]

i've got a rear wheel. i need a rear rotor. a guy told me that most late model gixxer rotors work but the part #s don't seemthe same. suggestions?

[twf]

srad generation rotor will work on your 00sv.newer generation has same bolt patern but diameter is smaller.
I have aftermarket rotor if you interested.it is Braking brand and used very short time.$50.

[johnnySV]

.... newer gen GSXR rotor (post-SRAD) is quite lighter as well.... i believe maybe 1/2 to 1lb.

the Braking rotor than Zoran has is probably even lighter yet, I would buy it if my bike wasnt SS prepped.

[warmseth]

zoran, sounds good. i'll call you.
thanks again.

Edit: Oops forgot I have the Honda rear rotor. Duh!

Anyway here's my latest upgrades. My F3 rear wheel and R1 5 spoke front wheel ( I had the 3 spoke wheel before). Swap calipers to the faster yellow ones (had the blue). ;)

Next on my list is a bug screen and mount the gauges.

[warmseth]

ooh damn, snap, you are too bloody cool :rolleyes:

show me that thing lapping willow springs at 1:35 or less and i'll be impressed. otherwise save your yellow calipers for the gang at starbucks.
;)

ps i'm just messing about. looks nice and i will upgrade to the honda wheels when i get fast enough for it to matter.

Yeah, and he rides around the whole track on the rear wheel like that, no less. Spencer's a squid at heart. :)

real racers ride this

[warmseth]

i get that the wheel is not a show-only mod. true, i was in fact, giving james a bit of a hard time (mainly due to the yellow calipers comment). the final implication in my post was that i was not fast enough for it to matter. i'm hovering around 1:40 so until i get about 5-10 seconds faster, does a f2/3 wheel really mean that much to a slowpoke like me?

That's right! Real racers ride a stock P.O.S. ;)

[warmseth]

dreamy. then, i am a real racer :p

zoran, $ sent

[johnnySV]

... i can smell your launches getting faster with a strapped front end.

why only half a front fender ??

[twf]

when you actualy use front end fender may hit radiator with gsxr front.

hum record holder rides a .... Y E L L O W BIKE !!! :p

Okay to get 1:35 I'd have to paint my black track bike to yellow to get that kind of lap time. ;)

The bigger F3 wheel weighs a bit more so you will lose a little bit of power with this mod. So not a slowpoke mod as you'll be extra slow. ;)

[warmseth]

good to know thanks. i feel even less guilty about my purchase of an extra stock wheelset then

i reached the end of the travel on my gsxr front end a few times in the oem setup but never hit the fender or did i ?

and james i want another test ride with your bike :D
looks pretty cool

and another proof that yellow makes you faster, which brings me to the point why am i still so slow ? :(

[james4396]

so lucky you have the yeloow cause you be extra slow in any other color ;)

ya let's ride and adjust your forks cause you have them set too soft

[warmseth]

for the record, i too am on a yellow sv. gosh i'd hate to think how slow i'd be on a **gasp** red bike :(

if your forks are stock they will not travel as far my will.in which case you may not hit fender.
