playboy Posted January 17, 2012 #5 Posted January 17, 2012 If they will they will probably just slow you down oh wait a min. that's what you want.:rotf: Just trying to give you a bump

bongobobny Posted January 17, 2012 #7 Posted January 17, 2012 Hmmm, that may be a remote chance Gary. I have a spare set of rotor covers in the shed and an old 1st gen rotor, so I could see if the bolt pattern lines up...
Yammer Dan Posted January 17, 2012 #8 Posted January 17, 2012 Sometimes Gary is hard to understand. He spends all that time and effort to make it go faster. Now he is trying to slow it down??? Sorry Gary it was just there.

Pegasus1300 Posted January 17, 2012 #10 Posted January 17, 2012 Do a google search for BraKing or Braking and see if they still have 1st gen rotors.They used to at real good price. I do not know if the 2nd gen rotors will fit.You might call call BraKing or maybe Galfers and see if they send out the same rotor for both 1st and 2nd gens. I wish I knew more.

This would be a non standard for the MKII 1st gens. They normally use a 282mm x 7mm wide. 1st gen MKI use a 298, but it is 8.5 mm, I think. The RSV is 298mm x 5mm. The narrower width would be helpful. Gary

bongobobny Posted January 18, 2012 #13 Posted January 18, 2012 Uhhhh, what rotors Gary? All I have is a scored up MK1 rotor...
dingy Posted January 18, 2012 Author #14 Posted January 18, 2012 Uhhhh, what rotors Gary? All I have is a scored up MK1 rotor... I misread your post and thought you had a spare set of RSV rotors. Gary
Yammer Dan Posted January 19, 2012 #15 Posted January 19, 2012 This any help?? http://www.ebay.com/itm/GALFER-FT-RR-WAVE-ROTOR-YAMAHA-FJR-VENTURE-V-MAX-1100-/290659633151?hash=item43acaa07ff&item=290659633151&pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr
Prairiehammer Posted January 19, 2012 #16 Posted January 19, 2012 ROYAL STAR VENTURE 1988 (FRONT) I must have missed that year RSV.
RandyR Posted January 19, 2012 #17 Posted January 19, 2012 I think Gary is asking if the bolt holes line up?
bongobobny Posted January 19, 2012 #18 Posted January 19, 2012 Yes he is! I have a set of 2nd gen rotor covers in my shed that I'm going to match up this weekend with a 1st gen rotor also in the shed to see if the bolt pattens are the same...
dingy Posted January 19, 2012 Author #19 Posted January 19, 2012 I think Gary is asking if the bolt holes line up? Yes he is! Yes I am. Need the larger rotors for my radial brake experiment. There are wave rotors on ebay, but I am not warm & fuzzy with the pad surface having those large indentations in the contact area. Would have to reduce the effectiveness of the brakes as well as cause erosion of the pad surface, IMHO. Gary
