Well, she is due for a new set of rotors, all the way around. Anyone have a line on a good set of them at a good price. I always have used OEM pads, but the rotors are down to less than 6mm, closer to 5 or 5.5mm. I'm not looking for just a cheap set of knock offs, but a decent set at a good price. Any help would be appreciated. I rode my Valkyrie 559 miles Saturday and Sunday, now it is really Valkyrie related. I would have gone to the other board areas, but this one has the most traffic.Thanks everyone.

I put 2001 GL1800 front rotors on my 1997 when it hit 100,000 miles. I got them from HDL. At the time GL1800 front rotors were 1/2 the price of Valkyrie rotors & fit the same. Now I think those prices are reversed. I don't like the way aftermarket front rotors look unless they are the ridiculous priced Galfers, those look cool!
I went with a less expensive EBC rear rotor because you can't see it at all on a Tourer anyways.
Regardless I always use Honda OE pads.  :cooldude:
'13 F6B black-the real new Valkyrie Tourer
'13 F6B red for Kim
'97 Valkyrie Tourer r&w, OLDFRT's ride now!
'98 Valkyrie Tourer burgundy & cream traded for Kim's F6B
'05 SS 750 traded for Kim's F6B
'99 Valkyrie black & silver Tourer, traded in on my F6B
'05 Triumph R3 gone but not forgotten!

What are so bad looking of the EBC Fronts?



I'll try to find a better picture.

I thought that OEM rotors started at 4.5 mm and had a service limit of 4 mm.
