So, what's the difference between this and the standard way the front brake disk mounts?

I thought that the description said it all really -
Quote:
This kit replaces the stock front brake rotor mounting hardware. This mounting system increases the rotor to wheel contact, which improves the heat dissipating characteristics of the front brake system. It also reduces the brake drag of the system by keeping the rotor in better alignment in extended high temperature situations. These improvements provide more consistent lever feel for the racer. Recommended to use with H0201C.08AZA 5MM FINNED FRONT BRAKE ROTOR or H0201.06AH 6MM FRONT BRAKE ROTOR.

My question is "How does it achieve those improvements over the standard way of mounting the disk?"

Does away with the springs so that the disc is held in contact with the rim.

I see.

Why are the originals spring mounted?

So there's no compression play at all in the rotor when you press against it with the EBR kit?

There is as always a big difference twixt - what is good on a track and what is good on the road. Track bikes get maintained every 100miles or so - Tops.
