Can anyone stear me towards some wavey discs that don't cost the earth. I've got Brembo brakes now and figured that i'd be paying premium prices for anything to replace them.
I'd be stoked if I didn't have to forfeit body parts to fit wavey discs. Any ideas?

I think you get what you pay for in discs, one of the busa guys had some cheapies get loose on the rivets (very loose)in less than 2000kms.Have seen some nice looking discs very cheap on ebay but function is more important than form in this case.

I wouldn't be saving money with stuff like brakes mate. Get the best you can.
As for what to use have a chat with a few ASF guys that sell them:

Nudie,

I bought these Galfer wavy disks from Bikecraft a few months ago. Steve at Bikecreaft was excellent as far as customer service went. He went out of his way to get them for me. Total price was $850 for the pair so not the cheapest available but they give excellent feel. I'm happy with them.

By the way they're on a CB 1000.

I think price is dependant on bike type. I know mine weren't in stock and had to be ordered which took about 6 weeks. Rotors to suit more popular sporting bikes probably are in stock and I suspect cheaper becasue of that.

Thank guys, I guess i'd better try to get some bucks together. There's nothing wrong with the brakes at present (they are Brembos) I just like the look of wavey discs. I think they make a visual impact. I wouldn't try anything cheap arsed, but since i'm still paying off an ex wife and 2 kids, the $$$ just have to stretch a bit further.

IIRC in the back of AMCN or cycle torque there is a place that laser cuts your disks into wave disks

I think Jo had thet done to hers but she went missing ages ago so we'll have to rely on Docktor to tell us.
