Looks like you get what you pay for...

Disc is about 6-7mm thick too. There are about 6-7 cracks on the 10 curves on the disc. Think the lesson here is don't buy cheap, unbranded crap from eBay (I can only presume that's where it was purchased from, the previous owner put it on.)  I tend to use the rear brake quite a lot, always use 50/50 front/rear. Just as well I noticed now rather than it failing when I take it on the track. |

Hi, saw a set like that, and refused to buy due to price too good to be true type thing.
£150 for a front set of waveys for GSXR 1000.

It's amazing that someone would scrimp on something as vital as brakes just for the (questionable) bling factor  |
