Rear Brakes

[CageyJ0nnY]

ok, ive got some brand new rear brakes disks for my 172cup, but im unsure of what people mean when they talk about 'bearings' in this context? Do you need new bearings in order to fit the new disks?

All this stems from this page: http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=2126&appid=2. Mainly because it says " includes bearings".

As you can probably tell im quite confused, any help would be appreciated!

thanks guys

Iirc genuine discs come with the bearings already pressed into the discs (like the ktec ones) you will need to get some bearings and have them pressed in if the ones you have got haven't already got them.

 

[CageyJ0nnY]

right ok, I can't see any bearings (I don't think).

Where would they go?

Heres a pic of both sides of one of my disks:

They would be in the big hole in the middle i can't see any in those pics.

ahhh ok, does anywhere offer this type of service? or are the disks worthless?

cheers for your help Jack

Genuine ones from reanult, discs, with bearings already pressed in and ABS rings alread attached for £100, don't know why anyone buys anything else.

 

[CageyJ0nnY]

yeah, its my own fault, I got them for £20. Not bad I thought (at the time).

 

[DrR]

Thats not to bad, but for me personally i couldn't buy and get bearings pressed in for less than the price of new discs.

 

[CageyJ0nnY]

might whack them up on fleebay, or the for sale section on here and cut my losses with them,

Cheers for your help though!

I sell Brembo rear discs with bearings already pressed in at factory (no abs ring but as you have a 172 cup you obviously dont need it) for £79 posted.
