Default Anybody using W8Less rotors?

Saw the W8Less display at Sturgis. The rotors look good, and are certainly much lighter than the stockers. Just wondered if anybody has tried them? Thanks.

I would advise everyone to wait and let every one else test them. I know what I am talking about. Let it rest at that.

If much better braking and less unsprung weight is what you want, have you looked at the composite Lyndall's? I have them on my bagger lite and did plenty of two up mountain touring this summer; they worked fantastic. I knowfor sure becauseI went over the same roads I did last year withoutstock triple discsand with a bump from 88 to 103 inches...

Sharkey, I was looking at the W8less, because they are way cheaper than the LRB set up. Almost 50% cheaper.

I think I paid about $550 apiece for the Lyndalls; they do have a lifetime warranty if you use their pads and they have been around a while...

I agree with you, the Lyndals are the right way to go!
