Title: All years front rotors interchangeable? Post by: Tfrank59 on August 29, 2019, 03:40:22 PM There are probably some posts about this but you gurus in the know can you tell me if I use a front rotor off of a 2000 Interstate would it fit on my 1998 tourer? I'm thinking all those years front rotors are interchangeable but I wanna check especially cause it's coming off of an interstate.

I went on procaliber. The 99' CF and the 98 C are the same. Title: Re: All years front rotors interchangeable? Post by: Chrisj CMA on August 29, 2019, 04:07:41 PM All interchangeable

GW or Valk, the same. only goldwing GL1800 fits, GW GL1500 does not fit. Title: Re: All years front rotors interchangeable?

Post by: Tfrank59 on August 30, 2019, 09:49:06 PM Yeah I know the rear rotors are different but I'm asking about the fronts which I was pretty sure were the same all the years

I like the carrier look very much.
Front OEM valkyrie rotors = 3.25 lbs ea Both are the same and fit the valkyrie. Front VRF800 rotors = 2.75 lbs ea Front CBR600F4 rotors = 2.75 lbs ea Title: Re: All years front rotors interchangeable?

Post by: Paladin528 on September 01, 2019, 02:56:32 PM What is the new thickness of the CBR and VFR rotors?
The reason I as is that the Valk Minimum Thickness is 4mm. This is important because the Valkyrie is FAR heavier than either of those 2 bikes. The extra metal on the VALK rotors allows for More heat to be absorbed. The Calipers and pads are also designed for a thicker rotor. Title: Re: All years front rotors interchangeable?

The Calipers and pads are also designed for a thicker rotor. EBC lists same rotor for all, doesn't see a problem. I am seeing better braking with the OEM VFR800 rotors than from the OEM Valkyrie. Holding heat gives less braking performance. cooler brakes the better during operation.
