Is there any difference???

Yamerhaw · 08-31-2009, 07:43 PM

So i bought some rotors off Ebay for an 06-07 GSXR 750 to put on my 05 GSXR 1000, they look the same but have different part numbers?? A year or two ago i had rotor trouble and took the wheel off my buddies 07 750 and put on mine to see if that was the problem and it worked fine on my bike, so will the different part number make any difference , are they the same or is there some other difference and if so , will it matter?

here's a couple of pics of each model

okay, they are both 310mm, what other difference would there be?

Possibly the bolt layout on the inner diameter? It is also quite possible that the original brake rotor had a defect which they corrected and gave it a new part number.

well the front wheels on both models have the same part number, so i would have to assume the bolt pattern would be the same(not being a smart ass, i just now looked it up to see)

so bolt patterns must be the same, outer diamater is the same, so i'm thinking they will work?

Whats the thickness of the two? A caliper is your friend.

not sure,

well like i said , i had rotor problems a while back, and put my buddies front wheel off his 07 750 straight on my bike, and it worked fine,

i believe they are the same, they will be here tommorrow and i'll measure them just to see

The difference might only be the pattern.
