What are the best options for front brake discs?  Happened to check the discs while replacing a tire and  were below 4mm.

Thanks

From JeffK's generic parts page


Brake Rotors
The following are Honda part number from a GL1800 GoldWing. They do fit a Valkyrie.  Front only

I installed wing rotors on my (now sold) Valkyrie. They're lighter and look good too. Fit is perfect.

Ouch...They certainly don't give them away...Partzilla lists at $245 each..... they look pretty good though.

EBC with EBC pads. OEM with OEM pads. That is the going recommendation.

I believe there was a post maybe within the last year now, someone tried the ebay ceap China made ones. First follow up post was not bad, but haven't had a follow up since.

I never looked up the price, as I haven't needed any yet.

My memory is that EBC rotors are not stainless so (like my truck rotors) they rust
