What's up their RU-vidr's and fellow riders, you guys saw my product review of the Arashi Semi Floating wave rotor, if not you can catch it here.
• Arashi Semi-Free Float...
If your looking to purchase a complete set of these rotors I got mine for $182 shipped on Amazon. They ship from China and take about 1 1/2 weeks to arrive. The seller was GZYF.
The pads that I use are HH Sinter. EBC makes a pair but are costly. I use a cheaper brand off eBay. Which ever way you go the HH simi metallic pad will give tremendous stopping power when you need it.
Few things to remember when installing:
*Make sure to clean the rotors with brake clean to remove the oil on the surface.
*Use blue lock tight to secure your bolts from accidentally backing out due to vibration.
*Change out your brake pads with every new rotor install. The old pads will have the imprint and groves left behind from the previous rotor and will not sit completely flush on the smooth surface of the new rotor.
*Torque spec: I generally use what's called the mechanics feel when torquing down my bolts, for the simple fact that I'm re-using old bolts that are bit more brittle do to heat. I find that using the service manual torque specs with used bolts will often snap causing more issues then good. Use good judgment and blue like tight and you'll be good.
*Give your new pads and rotors some break in time before hitting high speeds. 100-200 miles should be good. After all the last thing you want is to hit that lever in emergency situation and not slow down fast enough to get you out.
*Buy the Chemis a Red Bull!*
