BDAZ XX Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 This is off a buddies super sik RC45! ......................................................................................................................................................... Sequence of events: First came the 3.50 x 17 Marchesini magnesium wheel once owned by Wayne Rainey... Next came the Brembo billet calipers... Then I machined my own magnesium caliper hangers... I also machined my own axle out of 7075 T6 aluminum... I added a QB carbon fender... Finally the addition of Ferodo's Ceramic Matrix Composite rotors for a 3 lb drop in weight... How it all adds up: Stock Honda 310mm stainless steel 3 lbs 4 oz Ferodo 320mm Ductle Iron 2 lb 8 oz Ceramic Matrix Composite 1 lb 7 oz Quote my good friend Jeff Gehrs of Brake Tech USA "Brake Tech USA is very pleased to announce the release of the long awaited, ultra-advanced technology Ceramic Matrix Composite brake rotors for the Motorcycle Industry. The AXIS/StarBlade™ is the new and updated MKII version incorporating now de-classified Stealth Bomber Aircraft technology manufactured by Starfire Systems, this revolutionary material will change the way both top-level race teams and enthusiasts alike view their braking systems. The performance parameters in-total make all previous materials and systems dated by comparison, including the vaunted Carbon/carbon brakes. Designed to perform brilliantly with OEM calipers as well as the Billet GP race-spec versions. This all-new composite material offers the best features of premium iron rotors with the incredible lightweight of carbon, and none of the Carbon/carbon foibles!" Performance features include: * Not thermally sensitive (will work great on the street) * Ultra broad torque curve across a very wide thermal range * Much longer lasting than Carbon / carbon * Much less expensive than Carbon / carbon * Great wet weather performance - unlike Carbon / carbon [not hygroscopic] * Terrific feel and feedback at the lever * Strong braking performance? We mean, Really strong: +.6 mu average friction with special Ferodo Racing brake pads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redbird Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 How much? Just that caliper is probably $1500+ so I'm sure Larry can afford way more than I, but I just have to know... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDAZ XX Posted January 22, 2009 Author Share Posted January 22, 2009 Purely guesstimating I'd say C/C rotors are $3000, Forks are $3500, Wheel was $1000, Monoblock GP calipers were $2000, Magnesium clipper mounts $1000 and brake pads are $300? Total in the picture, $10k+! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guys really don't expect anything like that to show up here in the garage and could be truly surprised in a bad way even by something tamer.

Your posted indicates to me that you are a tiger ready to pounce. But, again it's me and we all know where I stand with the click. No secrets, right? As for the google.....I'm not your lap dog so I will just stick to what I can understand in your posts because we all know you will reply. Google restraint.

DaveK Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 When you dangle a steak in front a hungry lion....you expect him to not eat? You know this theory MUCH better than me. Right Mr. Mod? LOL....you'll be back. By the way....we are having a friendly exchange here. No name calling, no cursing, no threats...but I appreciate you throwing in the DBLXX comment or shall we say a juicy steak? I actually thought this was a pretty adult exchange.
