I bet if you do a search, on the Tech Board you will come up with a few options. I believe that some are using GL1800 Rotors which are less expensive than Valk rotors from what I read awhile back.
You could get aftermarket rotors as well.... but I have not heard much good about them in general from what I recall.
FYI DLP is having a Super Bowl Sale which ends on the 8th. Coupon code is Dallas.

Quick answer, GL1800 front rotors directly fit the Valk. Half the $$ still OEM quality.
For rear rotor aftermarket is cheaper.
Goldwing rotors on my Valk.

Is the EBC Rotor for the rear the best value for the buck? Is there another option for the rear rotor?

That's what I bought. I didn't like the gold looking color of it but you can't see it on the Tourer.

I have EBC both front and rear with their pads. Best stopping power since it was new.

Supposedly the rear rotor from a ST1100 will fit the rear wheel of our Valks.
