    Drilled Discs are way better

    My gs750e with the dual disc up front had these ginormous rotors with grooves from the 70's , threw on the drilled discs i got off of the forums here and they were thinner than my other ones, and i had to squeeze the lever a couple times for the pads to touch, riding the whole day my lever is much more firm and the bike stops quicker now! i dont know what it is maybe the thinner discs but they sure as hell are much better than the old ones

      New fluid? New pads? New lines or just the thinner discs?

      After you squeezed to get the lever firm, did you top off the reservoir?

      You should btw

                I'm about to send my rotors off to be drilled. The guy is asking $80 for a pair. He's been vouched for by a lot of people. Looking forward to this.
