New disc rotors

I'm torn between atempting to get my rotors turned or buying a new drilled set front and back. I have a dual disk setup on a 78 KZ1000. Any preferred brands to buy or placed to get it at?

It is easier to say what I haven't replaced then what I have.

Having your rotor's turned would be a fantastic waste of your time and money.

What are you're concerns with the existing?

The fronts are quite heat glazed, and the rear have some grooves in them from the rear pads grinding.

any decent shop that does flywheel grinding can machine the rotors,they will tell you if there is enough meat on them or not;)
Still recovering,some days are better than others.
