That was 150 quid for a pair of PFM second hand discs of unknown condition. New PFM discs are around £190 each and OEMs are even more.
I dont want to risk my neck either..but if someone had actually got experience of rebuilding discs and thinks there is no problem doing so then i might consider it…i have to say it sounds dodgy to me too.

Good luck. Agree with comments above, brakes are life savers.Be seen and be Safe!
Its beggining to sound like you might have to shell out around the £200 mark Richy. Unless you ring around the breakers for a good set of standard ones ? At least you’ll have a comeback on them as opposed to ebay.

I blame all those rolling stoppies on shagging them (i wish)
Scouser..thanks for the link. MadSrad, you may be right there dude.
Anyone heard of discs called Stealth (Hyperlite) ??

Give Partfinder UK a ring :- 09060 300 100, calls are charged at £1.50 min, but you’ll only be on for a cpl of minutes. Tell them what you want and the breakers will ring you. Take the phone number of each breaker that phones and buy the cheapest. They’ll probably be ringin’ you for a couple of days, I’ve got a few bits through them.

Tell them all they’re the first one has phoned, and take their number (say you’ll ring back). Its worth knocking a tenner off the lowest price aswell or haggle on the postage. It does no harm playing them off agaist each other if you get the discs at the right price ? lol

Update:
Finally got a pair of nearly new discs off ebay..ex Hayabusa (found out that the same discs are used for all GSXRs (including K1, K2 GSXR1000s & Hayabusas) from 1996 to approx 2002, I guess until the radial caliper models came in ?
I got them for bargain price of £128, fitted along with some goodridge braided hoses and EBC pads the braking performance is 10 times better than before.
