FAQs

Does this disc come with mounting bolts?

No, the package includes the brake disc. It is recommended to use the existing bolts if they are in good condition, or purchase new OEM-spec bolts.

Can I use this with carbon-ceramic pads?

This disc is designed for standard performance street usage; consult your brake pad manufacturer for compatibility with SUS 420 stainless steel.

What is the weight of the disc?

The disc is manufactured to OEM weight specifications to ensure the unsprung mass remains balanced for the GSX1400 suspension.

How often should I check the thickness of the disc?

Check the disc thickness at every tire change or at least once per season. Replace if it wears below the manufacturer's service limit.

Is this disc compatible with other Suzuki models?

This specific part (MDS05038) is precision-engineered for the Suzuki GSX1400 (2001-2005). We do not recommend using it on other models unless specified by the fitment guide.

Troubleshooting

Brakes feel spongy after installation

This is typically caused by air in the lines, not the disc itself. Bleed the rear brake system thoroughly.

Braking performance is weak immediately after install

New discs require a 'bedding-in' period. Perform a series of gentle, progressive stops to transfer pad material to the disc.

Audible squealing during use

Check that the brake pads are seated correctly and that the caliper pins are lubricated. Ensure the disc is free of contaminants.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This disc is a direct fit for the Suzuki GSX1400 models produced between 2001 and 2005.

Installation Steps:

  1. Secure the motorcycle on a paddock stand.
  2. Remove the rear wheel assembly and detach the old brake disc.
  3. Clean the mounting surface on the wheel hub thoroughly to remove debris or oxidation.
  4. Install the new disc, applying high-strength thread locker to the bolts.
  5. Torque all disc bolts to the manufacturer's specified setting using a cross-pattern.

Care:

Regularly clean the disc surface using a dedicated brake cleaner. Avoid getting oil, grease, or silicone-based products on the disc, as these will significantly reduce braking effectiveness. If the disc is not used for long periods, wipe it down to prevent light surface rust.
