Default Rear Wave Rotor

Just finished this last week at work. I know I said I would post some pics of it when it was done. I'm not sure when I'm going to put it on to testbecause I want to get a new chain also. Got the idea from a guy on ebay that said he use to or is part of the honda race team and machined oem rotors for racing and was selling them also.I know all the opnions on the wave rotors have seemed real wish-e-wash-e.I will give a full report after a few hundred miles.

looks good, Definetly report back with an update....
As for the new chain, not sure what youve been looking at but
i just had an RK xso on and hated it... Stretched almost everytime i rode.
Since then i replaced with the DIDvp and love it...

I will keep that in mind! I haven't really started looking yet but I'm looking for one that will last and have anodized gold or gold/brass looking links. Nothing too flashy though. Any other comments or suggestions welcome.

100th post! wooohoooo!

I've already been looking on ebay for a set of front OEM rotors to do except I would more than likely not cut the outer dia. out.....or not too much. It took one of the guys here at work a little bit of time to write the program to CNC the outer dia on the rear. As for making a set for others, it would be real hard to get the time on the CNC to do it. I've done some Throttle Bodies for cars and started running into a little trouble with doing to many here at work so I need to find a machine shop but I would have the tooling and the programs.

those rotors look great! hope they work as good as they look.

laws of physics tells me that more metal = more stopping power, less metal = less stoppingpower...

as long as the heat is dispersing adequately you don't really need all that swiss cheese...but i've been wrong before.

Well you get to a point where there is no more gain.We do know that the cross drill is > than 100% surface area contact (or no cross drilling/vains).So the real question is at what point will the cross dril, vain, and/or wave start tobecome an ineffective component of breaking?
