Yes, I know the early disc screws were C/S and later button torx......but which version disc have you got from EBC ?....they supply both  If C/S, Buell want £1.55 each, if buttons, Buell want 5 quid each

Which are easiest to get out when the disc is shagged?

Button torx are easy to remove but the C/S require a special technique

Ordered the countersunk disc. What's the low down on removal then? |

Bearings out, get the screws really hot (blow torch will do) and use a very good quality 3/16th allen key (pref. socket type). Before fitting the new disc, chase the threads (5/16'' unc) and make sure the mounting surface is dead clean/flat. Medium strength Locktite on NEW screws, 22ftlb. Obviously new pads, pref. EBC 249HH. |
