Looks tidy.
I ummed and arred about those rotors for another (similarly light) application. Were you able to get undrilled blanks?
Nope, unfortunately not.
Just got back from its first drive.
Not very good to start with, but the fronts are starting to wake up.
I only gave it a half-arsed bleed to get some pedal so I'm not really surprised it's not the best. But as the pads settle it's getting better.
Initally I could only lock the rears, so I would on more front brake because I didn't really know where the balance bar was set anyway.
It's now fully at the front and I can lock the fronts with a bit of effort.
I think once the pads are finally settled and all the air is out of the system I can wind off a heap of front balance bar, and it'll have a really nice pedal and pull up well.
Anyway, the discs are nice & shiny now.
