Reconditioning brake rotors
Reconditioning brake rotors
I'm looking for a recondition and drilling service for my brake rotors - any recommendations?
Re: Reconditioning brake rotors
You didn't mention where you are located geographically or what bike this is for
but this business advertises on the AHRMA (vintage MC racing) web site and in their rule book.
Tool Salvage & Motorcycle Works, 15709 Euclid Ave., Cleveland, OH 44112; 216.451.5500.
I have not used them but know that they have done this for a long time.
You could also search for a machine shop that specializes in brake work for vintage car racing.
They may also work on MC rotors as well.
Hope this helps,
Dean

Thanks!
I may send them off (I'm in upper Midwest).
I had the rotors hydro-blasted and they look great. The advice I was given from a local Vintage Duc shop is to not bother turning them, I may have them do the drilling, and then paint myself.
Any advice on paint? I usually use an enamel for something like this.

Countersink or just de-bur?

Whatever you want to call it as long as you get rid of the sharp edges.

Gaccha. I think of countersunk as using an angle cutter to prep a hole for a countersunk screw. De-bur as just removing the sharp edges.
If you want to get great de-burring tools that do 2 sides of the material at once or de-bur a blind hole, these are the ones:
