 Has anybody replaced their front rotors with gl1800 rotors?  And if so are there  adaptions thet need to be made for them to work?  These would be going on a 1999 Interstate. Thanks Tom M

Should go right on, but check HDL, I got Valk OEM rotors cheaper than GW rotors just a few weeks ago. Prices dropped for some reason.

The GW rotors are not the same thickness as the Valkyrie rotors.

They start 1mm thinner and end their life 1mm thinner than the Valk ones, but the usable life is the same (.5mm on each side)

Wow they really have lowered the price on the Valk rotors. 120.00 each. I guess I'll go with them. Are the rotor bolts reusable or do they need to be replaced as well?

Honda says replace bolts because they come pre loaded with locktite. I clean mine up and use new locktite. Hondas LT is red in color but is actually a medium strength.
