Hi all, recently got back into the Fazer game with a pretty tidy 2007 FZ1 with 19k on the ODO.
It's a lovely bike, but I must admit I didn't really understand about the potential for rotor failure before I purchased it...
Now fully ready up so I have now followed up
I've checked the history and with the vendor (neither of which could help) and ultimately pulled the cover to find (predictably on this MY) I have got the original rotor not the later one, though it does at least look to be in good condition.
So next step, I don't want to have a potential handgrenade in the motor so I need to replace it and I don't want to pay the ridiculous amount quoted for an original part (I think Fowlups want nearly £800).
I note the recommendation of Motoelectrical above, but was wondering if anyone has any experience with any of the rotors advertised on Amazon;
e.g.
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B097...38J0&psc=1
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B091...21AM&psc=1

Any thoughts or advice gratefully accepted
