Had a few minutes spare, so I took the opportunity to fit my new stainless rotor to the front of my bike. When I get a chance, I will fit one for the rear as well.

It was a good fit on the spigot, bolt holes aligned perfectly, and the offset is spot on, running right down the centre of the caliper opening. Brake pad engagement on the wipe zone looks correct, with no over-bite showing.

I also popped in some platinum pads, as recommended. I like the look, and I personally am happier with this type of stainless rotor that permits the retention of the stock caliper, which I really would not ever want to change (also for the way it looks).

I snapped this quick pic.

I did post in the for sale section regarding the rotors being for sale, but as this thread was really only about my experience in fitting the rotor, I chose not to mention anything directly regarding my selling them.
I only sell in Aust (sometimes NZ) anyhow, but still someone considering a purchase elsewhere may gain confidence regarding the fitment from my report.

So, yes, they are available for sale from several vendors I believe, although I only know of US/Canada based outlets aside from myself. They may well be available elsewhere, I just do not know any details on that.

I liked them for myself, and also for higher level resto/upgrades, and saw that stock replacement rotors in stainless were difficult to obtain, and also were extremely expensive. It seemed reasonable to me that others in Aust/NZ may be interested in such a product, especially if the price was much lower. On that line of thinking, I did the work, established the correctly supply and price point(I hope), so they are on hand if anyone wants to go that route.

Hope that helps.
