Still just lovin' it 
There is no way I'd go back to a stock rotor, this Big Brake rotor is one great upgrade...

Still loving mine as well! Single unit, plenty of braking power don't need a second for now. Frederic, I'm so sorry I guess I never saw your post from October asking for new photos. I'll try to take some tomorrow since the bike is up on the jack with cylinder replacement. So hot here, but a friend loaned me a cooler for my garage which may speed the service process along. At any rate all good here as mentioned!

Upping the thread.
Did you guys tried the EPFA pads from EBC ?
I'ld like to give EBC pads a try (instead of my current CL Brakes) to see if there is a difference in stopping power (and also pad positionning into the caliper).
There is both EPFA and FA for our bikes front caliper...

Not sure what you have now - but if you ride conservative.., to even moderately - you may not notice a big difference..., and they may not be worth the add'l coin
If you push the envelope habitually - you'll love em
Feedback
They can be had from summitt racing for $70.00
They work - hot.., wet.., or cold
No dust.., no squeak..., no fade.., no excessive wear..., don't abuse the rotors
====================
Be sure to clean the rotor surfaces..., then bed em in
You'll have brakes that are reliable..., predictable.., not harsh (grab)... and most importantly - work
Questions - ask Sir

Thank you ghost !
I currently have CL Brakes (Carbone Lorraine) A3+ sintered pads. The stopping power is very good with the AN 15" rotor. But i'ld like to try another brand to see if this solve the problem i have with the pads moving into the caliper...

EPFA are here 
I Also figured out the reply of the/my first post a this topic about the shim :
EBC say in their catalog to reuse the original shim when Sintered (HH or EPFA) are used.
