Where did all the $150 rotors go? I needed an extra rotor to send out to be cut like the other 4 I had done and when I went looking they were all well over $250 at the online parts houses. I ended up finding a new open box rotor on Ebay for a reasonable price but still..... I can get 14" Wilwood scalloped, drilled and vented racecar rotors for less money than Honda wants for a flat piece of stainless steel. 🙄

Have no idea what the material is, but if you are set up to customize why not just make your own? Add 4 counter sunk holes and sell them for $200?

Go work on your boat dock! Really how's that coming along?
Waiting for the check from the insurance company for the rolling dock system. Same goes for the boat itself. At least we were able to get the roof on the house/barn/outbuilding replaced without too much fanfare - it was the first of three claims in a ~2 month period.

Seems like lots of room for the aftermarket here. Don't know how much demand there is for talon specific rotors, but if someone is already doing others...... dayum

Cause when two-fiddy is too ridonkulous for one rotor, ya might as well drop a band and a half for a full front brake setup ... 🤑

PM machine sells a Talon brake upgrade kit too. It's like $2500 but comes with new rotors all the way around and some bling billet calipers with all the pistons. 😆
