They're Italian (I think). I am sure, I've seen them as OEM fitment to a bike before...

I'll do some digging and will trip over them for sure.

Cheers,
Greg

Sorry, I can't ID the brake disc above, but I've had really good luck with 2 piston Spondon calipers on cast iron rotors on my Suzuki. :dry: Paul

Lot of work done, valve adjustment, engine gaskets, fork seals, etc. and of course brakes installed. What a difference! it brakes like i were riding a plume. big difference with oem brakes.
Thanks for your info Greg, but still I could not identify it. I've looked at 70´s moto guzzi and Ducatis. I keep looking
Awesome bike Paul. those are my favorite wheels. Which brake pads do you use?

Thanks very much. It's been a labor of love for many years. At present it has pads suggested by "Mercury Morris" at vintage brake Ferodo FDB342P pads. Very linear and progressive. Paul.

Thanks Paul, I'm afraid the Ebc HH brake pads eat the iron discs

Are the Galfer Green pads not up to the task anymore?

galfer green are not meant for iron rotors as far as i know...

they are nice, but ferodo CP nicer ;)

hit the track and you'll see, just like with power, there's no such thing as good enough brakes...
