Hi all, Since I have been with Braking USA sponsorship for MX/Supermoto for years and working at Harley Davidson/Buell dealership in Riverside, CA. I'm considering selling the rotors/display and getting some this year when mine wear out...or. Well made in Italy and USA HQ in Ohio. Good made replacement rotors and pads,etc for most Buells. Here is a link/pic. They were on the Buell 1125CR Termignoni bike(Milan show) on this forum: http://brakingusa.com/searchresults.aspx?MS=True&D D1=6&DD2=1125%20CR&DD3=2008 You chose BUELL --> 1125 CR --> 2008 the table of parts below reflect the all parts for your selection: Product # Description Fitment Front | Rear Price Qty Add 939CM55 Sintered Sport Street Pad Set X $79.90 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 938CM56 Sintered Sport Street Pad Set X $49.90 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 BL02FID Braking FRT Rotor - Buell X $320.00 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 BL02RID Braking RR Rotor - Buell X $159.00 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 MC1602 16mm Master Cylinder w/o Reservoir $299.00 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 MC1902 19mm Master Cylinder w/o Reservoir $299.00 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 KITR06 Master Cylinder Replacement Lever Kit - Short $80.00 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 KITR07 Master Cylinder Replacement Lever Kit - Long (std) $80.00 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 (Message edited by racerxusa on January 08, 2009) | ||

I think BaggerMike had them on his 1125r. Besides the "bling" factor, I don't know why I would spend the $'s. | ||

I have them on my XB, along with the Lyndal pads, I learned really fast how to do stoppies!  | ||

Since these are pretty much "bling" items... PIX would be NICE. Z | ||

I have a Braking rotor on one of my front wheels. I think there is a benefit to it. Back to back comparison, between the same pad/caliper but different rotor, the Braking one feels better. | ||

My understanding is that the shape provides more surface area for better heat dissipation. | ||

Froggy: Great night shot. Chad: Good form, Ventura rack and all. Wish I could do some track days ;+} | ||

They are also a tad lighter, but i got them because they are sexy. | ||

That's the rack for the Buell top case. Told you it was a touring bike.  | ||
| Eaton_corners |
Froggy, what exhaust is that and what size are the head pipes? | ||
| Carbonbigfoot |
Froggy, that windscreen? Pretty cool. Where can I find one of them? Rob | ||
| Froggy |
Micron, and honestly I don't know the size, the Micron is a full system. The size varies because it is hydroformed | ||

Okay, other than the "Bling Factor," what exactly is the benefit of a wave rotor? I see Kawasaki seems to have standardized on that type of rotor on their sport bikes, but I'm missing the point, I think. Why? | ||

Its made by Badwebber Strada, www.palmer-products.co.uk He has a picture of my bike on his website He makes both the adjustable brackets im using and the screen too. It uses the same mounting pattern as the Uly screens so you can change to any of the Uly shields.

Thanks for the pics guys!...I will have them soon for the 2009 1125R/CR and for my CR soon at the shop during the year! Its about $145.00 for the stock front rotor w/bolts and $70 for the rear. So braking would be an OK upgrade when time to replace or.....The sintered brake pads front and back are a good deal by Braking though, lot cheaper and should be a good upgrade.

I was told that the wave shape has more surface area on the edge compared to a round rotor. A squigley line (~) is longer than a straight line (-). This doesn't mean it has more swept area, just more surface area to get rid of heat. Hope I didn't confuse you, my analogies suck. | ||

had braking rotors on my 2000 m2.not only did it stop better but the brake lever feel was harder. | ||

They let more air in-between the pads to keep heat down. The fact they look good is just a example that you can have form and function together. | ||

I've had'em on my X-1 and the S-1 even longer. I love them, went to one finger braking overnight. I just haven't had the dough to get those for the "25r" yet ,but eventually I'll get them on her. | ||
