there used to be a brake and clutch relining place in omaha that could turn kawasaki rotors but they went out of business,all the other places in town say they have to cut the the rivets that hold the hat and rotor together off to turn the rotors and bolt them back together!is there anyplace i can ship rotors to have them turned without disassembling them ?

I have my rotors ground at a local machine shop and the rotors do not need to be removed from their carriers.
