    The wheels are so light . As soon as i picked them up i could feel the difference . The seller said that they make a huge difference to the bike so i can't wait to get new pads on , run the brakes in and get out for a tidy blast

    Yeah i was on the website when i found them . Very tempting . I figured a grand for the wheels so if i paid that then sold my wheels i reckon i could have got 400 maybe 500 for mine + the 500 cash i paid making the swap work out and the gold Talon sprocket looks like they come with 1 free but the Braking Wavey discs are a bonus .

    All in all chuffed with that guys

    If your pads are good, not scored, use them, I use the same pads on my wet wheels and discs when doing track days and have never had an issue, just allow them to bed in for a while.

    Thanks for that mate .. I was a bit worried as iv seen that using un bedded discs can cause to much heat and possibly warp the discs but i think this was mainly on cars

    I think its only in MGP mate they have matched pads to discs....now I know how some of you blade owners cruze but I think as long as you don't get hard on the gas before turn five you will be fine....lol

    Cool no probs . Some guy on a 600 forum told me i must change pads every time i change discs .

    I had brake problems so bought new pads , turned out it was the discs so bought new discs and on that info bought a second set of new pads ( 80 quid a throw ) and binned the first set i bought

    TW*T made me waste 80 quid lol
