It's a brake rotor that won't wear out they also make kevlar brake pads.
Not sure on the cost but you can see the site at www.pureforge.com

brake rotors rarely wear out by being "too thin"-- they are discarded when overly warped or grooved.

I have never had to replace a disc or drum on any of my bikes- and I keep bikes for a long time.

kevlar may be a good material for pads- I dunno. current ceramic pads are pretty darn good.
I have a kevlar clutch in my hipo fxr and it's been just great for performance and service life--- 20 years, over 40000 miles

Yup. Its good. Pretty interesting stuff. I am always down for a product that keeps me riding longer. And I have a Kevlar clutch in my mustang and it's amazing. I hot lap often at the track and it has great street manners. Might be worth a shot when my brakes need done. Thanks for the link. Bookmarked
