Brake Rotor less rotating mass

[yamyrider]

anybody use this brake rotor. Is this the SLP.
Anybody know the weight savings. Thanks.

wow!! that thing looks wicked. is that even balanced?

 

[skidooboy]

i have one on my viper. not sure on the weight reduction. every little bit helps but, when you put a price per pound lost, you'd be better off to lose a few extra pounds on your body than the sled. ski

its easier and more effective to lose rotating mass than go on a diet especially if your small anyways

Saves 2#5oz, costs$185.95 + shipping. The recommended SLP brake pads + $66.95.

well I am 6ft tall and only weight 180lbs so I can lose any.
If it is 2lbs less then stock then that is like 10lbs fo equivilant weight.
That sounds pretty good.

Hubs! These are Aluminum & for a Yamaha!! add these to a viper rotor should be lots lighter!

hmmm... looks like the 2005 mxz x rotor i was thinking of putting on my 99 SX..... may buy it yet, MUCH cheaper than the SLP rotor on e-bay... just wondering if the hub would work too? Might be a cheap alternative to the SLP rotor no?

 

[yamyrider]

wow let me know if you dont take it

 

[skidooboy]

better make sure, spacers, and jackshaft are the same size for that doo rotor. could be in for an expensive suprize, buying something not made for particular application. i have a non wave vented, lightend oem doo race 440 rotor in like new condition. not sure if it will work for your application or not. ski

yea... i was looking into it. Not sure if it will work or not. It's on eBay for anyone that wants to bid. Here's the link.

it's doubled in price so I can see it getting even higher yet. I know i'm done bidding.
