My 2000 ST1100, non abs, only has 37 000 km, or 20 000 miles. I checked the thickness of my front disks, and they are due to be changed very soon.
I don't remember the minimum thickness in inches, but in metric it is 4 mm, witch is the thickness of 4 dimes.
So, I checked the prices of new ones on Partzilla and... they are at US $ 345 each. I need two, of course. Ouch !
But these are OEM... original Honda parts.... There migth be other brand, of good quality, for a bit less ?
This is the first time I will be buying new disks. So, I don't know wich brands to look for.
Of course, for Break and Tires, for obvious safety reason, these are two areas where I am looking for good quality, not the cheapest ones.
Any advices ?
