Thanks Greg, that was my feeling. I'll be installing new bearings and an Avon Cobra, so I feel I have a free choice anyway!

A brief update. I have already commented on this experience elsewhere, a while ago, but Lyndall let me down and could neither supply rotors or pads, nor give me any idea of when they would get fresh stock. I gave up on them and went British, so now have nice new EBC rotors and pads - at least they are only just up the road, about half an hour away. They should compliment my British Avon tyres a treat!

Nice,grbrown! Just bought EBC, for front & back on the Lowrider. Have em on, but havent tried them out , yet. Look like real good quality rotors.
Ride safe,
Harold

Hi Harold, I find it interesting that the rear rotor has ten 'spokes' and the fronts only five each! They happen to match my new SG front wheel, so should look good once on the bike, the rear on a bagger is obviously out of sight. My SG wheel is with my local friendly Harley mechanic for new bearings, as the first small step in my front end transformation. I decided that two heads are better than one in this bold adventure!
