Default Front brake discs/rotors

Hi People,

I have a 1990 CBR1000F that needs new front brake discs. I bought a pair of Speigler floating discs (they mount to the original holes on the front wheel and look great) off Ebay a few years ago, but now they too need replacing. I tried Spiegler, but they no longer do discs for this bike. Anyone know of any other company that does floating discs? My only other option is to fit a wheel from another Honda model and use those discs.

Thanks

Vince

Thanks, MDFF! They don't do floating ones, but they still look OK.

I have 122,000 miles on a '90. It has been track ridden many times and more than half of those miles are hard mountain riding, severe braking regularly. The rotors have been blued many times. The radial relief design at the hub is VERY effective at preventing warpage. I wouldn't change those things for anything else.
