    One of the track descends we done, was super steep and super long. My 1st gear 4L motor braking just didn't cut it, so I did ride the brakes a fair bit. I completely forgot about this

    Hmmm. Now, to look at new rotors while its all apart or just get it machined. Decisions.
    Especially when you are riding the brakes and then hit a puddle or do a river crossing. The cold against the hot metal can warp things. I got my discs machined pre TB upgrade and from memory it cost $70 an end, and he came to me and did it in the driveway. He smoked about 30 ciggies per wheel too. Lol.
