These look like the Arashi rotors I have, good price and they are wearing well. Use HH rated pads with them.

I have an 88' FZR front wheel with a set of Arashi brake rotors. They are very inexpensive and very good.

Here is a link to a seller on eBay.

Thank you. There are two models suggested, one for FJ1200 89+ and the other is for ZFR 88. Are these the same product? Are the bolt patterns of the FJ and FZR are identical? Do you have a manufacturer part number that will allow me to search for a reseller in North America?

Thanks,

Eyal

The pattern is the same, but the disc diameter is not.

Get the FJ discs.

I will put R1 calipers on the FJ1200 89 fork. Would that make any difference?

The photo is on an 88' FZR wheel with the FJ designated Arashi Rotors and a set of 01' R1 Calipers on 89' forks. Hope that clears everything up for you.
