The age old problem with the XB front brake pulsing. I was planning on getting the 6mm rotor and the new upgraded mounting hardware but I missed that boat. Now that EBR has shut its doors, whats the best option out there? Certainly not an eBay rotor and re-using the old mounting hardware. I want to fix the problem, not create new ones. Already tried the Lyndal gold pads without success and the bikes been out of service for 3 years so I am VERY behind the times.

Perhaps Sandro at 5-0dro....Twin Motorcycles have a wave rotor solution that is probably the way I'll go once I need to replace my current rotors.

Twin Motorcycles is about the only choice, hopefully 5-0Dro has them on this side of the pond.

Installing the competition(?) hardware kit solved the pulsing problem on my Ulysses.
So my advice is install the competition(?) hardware kit before investing on a rotor.

As stated (thanks Vicenzajay!), we can get the Galfer products via Twin Motorcycles. If we can combine the shipping over several orders, we could save you some money (group buy of sorts). Here's the link of the XB/1125/1190 front rotor on our site for reference: http://www.5-0dro.com/index.php/specials/twin-moto rcycles-xb-1125-front-rotor-detail

Let us know if we can help!

Lance at St. Paul HD has Braking rotors available. I believe he has hardware kits as well.
