Default New rotors and brake pad?'s

ok so I'm having a friend help me strip down my bike, I'm getting my wheels powder coated….so obviously i need new bearings….i need new rotors as well….i haven't looked at the brake pads yet but i might just replace them while i have everything apart,…..anyway any recommendations….

i was thinking of going with the lyndall pads….harley floating rotors?….as far as bearings i have no idea, probably jut get what harley sells?…..i kno this is probably like asking why oil to get but i would appreciate any replies…..all i wanna do is stop as good or better than i stop now…lol….ryan

Harley floating rotors are great and come with new fastening screws, as a small bonus. I have recently swapped to EBC floating rotors and pads, partly because they have a 5-spoke pattern which compliments my 'new' SG front wheel. I did investigate Lyndall, but they had no stock at the time, so be warned!

i run lyndall gold pads and they have been great with minimal dust and plenty stopping power. If you have brembos, you dont "need" new rotors unless they are below 6.3 mm thickness. i just checked my rear after 26000 miles and it was still at 6.7 mm.
