I finally got my Bike back but i have been told one or both of my front disc's are starting to warp.
I cant get Suzuki GB to replace them under warranty as my warranty expired on May 13th and i have already asked them to replace them as a gesture of goodwill seeing as the dealer had my bike for 9 weeks. anyway i cant be arsed with the hassle anymore so i'm just going to fork out for an uprated set myself.

I'm looking at either
EBC Pro-Lite Contour @ £240
or
Galfer Brake Discs @ £180

is it worth paying extra for the EBC Disc's? or is their another set i should be looking at?

Pretty sure I can do you a full set of 3 ABE Petals for about £300.

Galfers at £180 the pair? thats damn cheap and less than trade.

Check out disks made by Braking. Firstly they dont have to need specific pads (unlike galfers). Secondly, they fooking rock!

Have a pair on my zx, and i swear to god, i'd be in a hedge now without em.

I rode 5miles last night without using the brakes and when i got home i touched the disc's to see if they were warm. the left one was cold and the right one was very hot. so i take it that'll be the right one thats warped.
so heres the question, do i replace both of them with uprated discs EBC Pro-Lite Contours @ £240 or do i order an OEM disc from Suzuki for £150?
