FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the EBC MD Series Rear Brake Disc?

The primary benefit is enhanced braking performance and increased durability due to its high-quality DB420 stainless steel construction and robust design, leading to reduced stopping distances and improved safety.

Does this brake disc come with a fitting kit?

No, this EBC MD Series Rear Brake Disc requires a separate fitting kit, which is not supplied by EBC Brakes. You must purchase a compatible kit for your specific motorcycle.

What material is the brake disc made of?

The brake disc is crafted from high-quality DB420 stainless steel.

What is the diameter of this rear brake disc?

The diameter of this rear brake disc is 275mm.

Can I install this disc myself?

While installation is possible for experienced individuals, it is highly recommended to have a professional mechanic install the brake disc to ensure proper fitment, safety, and optimal performance.

How do I bed in new brake pads and rotors?

Bedding involves a series of moderate acceleration and braking cycles. Typically, you'll perform 5-10 moderate stops from around 30-50 mph down to 10 mph without coming to a complete stop, allowing some cooling time between cycles. Consult your brake pad manufacturer's instructions for specific recommendations.

What is the difference between this disc and an OEM disc?

The EBC MD Series disc is designed to exceed original equipment standards, offering enhanced durability, braking efficiency, and often a higher performance threshold due to its premium materials and construction.

Troubleshooting

Brake disc is vibrating or pulsing

This could indicate improper installation, warped rotor, or uneven pad wear. Check torque specifications, ensure the rotor is true, and inspect brake pads.

Reduced braking performance after installation

Ensure the disc and new brake pads are properly bedded-in. Check for air in the brake lines or leaks. Verify correct pad and rotor compatibility.

Difficulty fitting the disc

Verify that you have the correct EBC brake disc and the *required* EBC-compatible fitting kit for your motorcycle model. Ensure all mounting surfaces are clean and free of obstructions.
