    I'm looking at getting some new discs for my bike after I managed to warp them.

    I've seen 2 different types of the Brembo discs and would like to know which would be the best to go for. Not fussed if it's the cheapest or the most expensive. So long as it suits my style of riding. Ie road riding only.

    Reason I'm heading down the Brembo route is that I want to match them with the M4's.

    Thanks in advance.

    I've heard of Oreo and clubman I think but just know when I asked the oracle he said t drives lol

    No idea on other makes but foenix has tried most and did mention another make in his build thread if I remember correctly :)

    Yea I've read his views on the discs he was on about and have no doubt they will be good.
    I'd just like to marry the Brembos up.

    Looks like T-Drives it is then. I'll see what price I can get them for.

    Thanks

    I have T Drives as well, may well be overkill, but as I ride on the road, the most dangerous place of all IMO, I like to have the best I can reasonably afford.

    Plus they make a nice whooshing sound ;)

    I think the other one's are the serie oro (or something like that) not had them myself but have heard they are good.

    PS Have them with my M4's.

    As the other say the T drives are top draw even used in MGP on Rossi and JLs M1 in the wet, Oro means gold in Italian and sort of replace the old gold centre clubman style disc, the Oro can still be got in gold from some suppliers but most are now black, even though called gold?! lol

    Thanks Arthur.

    That clears things up a bit. I'll see if I can get a decent price on the T-Drives. :)

    Do u notice a massive difference with discs ?
    I had hpk on my Gixxer but think it was only so much of a difference because Suzuki make theirs from chocolate and cardboard

    Check with the supplier before you buy the Oros, early models designated for the abs do not have the tapping for the abs ring! mine are slightly warped but will upgrade to the hpks.
