In my haste to get ready for a track day, I had to improvise and ended up using some older brake pads.  After less than 1mile test ride, my rotors looked like this.  



By the way, here is a pic of my bike after fitting the rear tail section:

Current bikes:
1993 Honda NSR 250 SP
1994 Suzuki RGV 250 RR SP
1993 Yamaha Seca II

That tail looks sweet :thumb:
Is it off a 250 ?

If, when you run your fingernail across the disk, your fingernail hangs up; it's usually a good idea to replace the rotor. Reason being that that little groove causes excessive heat and may warp the rotor or fade brake feel, but we are a frugal bunch so I really wouldn't worry about it. It's not like you're racing. I mean, going that fast.
The motorcycle is no longer the hobby, the skill has become the hobby.

Power does not compare to skill.  What good is power without the skill to use it?
