Very good wavy discs at a great price £230 for a pair of fronts If people want these I will do 10% off discs and ferodo pads for grey bike members
ISR discs very very good but very pricey at over £200 per disc
Gavin, nice deal...I will keep it in mind. Need to get through my options. I will let you know. May need some other stuff from you

Never had galfers (probably because of the price) but always hear good things about them.
Ive had the EBC road discs with HH pads on me last RVF and they were more than good enough, have the race EBC's on my current RVF but havent rode the bike enough to comment but intitial thoughts are they take a little longer to heat up and bite.

galfer are about the same as the Braking and I think the Armstrongs are on a parr with both of them but about £100 cheaper as Braking are around £330 a pair of fronts

I've had a set of Galfer wave discs. They are extremely good at stopping but man did they wear out quickly

I have a set of cast iron 5,5mm Brembo race discs here on a shelf, if anyone's interested in a quality brake setup? They are 305mm RC30 units, and fits the NC front wheel straight on. I guess a pair of adaptors for the calipers would be necessary, though.

For the NC35, do you mean the Brembo adaptors to fit Brembo 40mm calipers on RVF forks? See picture below for example...

Sure that RC30 were 310mm std? If so, you can get the blade calipers - large nissins that are in silver off the RRW? They did one that had 310mm rotors...they would bolt straight in on a '35
Would be some hardcore brakes!

Sure would, the cast iron disc's i had on the ducati were seriously good.
35 disc's are 296mm, could you not just get some different adaptor plates made up to take the 305 or 310mm discs?
