    brake rotors?

    I got a new set of wheels coming this week, and need some new rotors to go with them. These will be for rains, so I might take the stock rotors off my bike and put them on the new wheels, and upgrade those rotors. I was looking at both iron rotors and Brembo T-drives, but know nothing much about either. What do you guys run for aftermarket rotors/what would you buy? I can buy the rotors that came on the bike (Brembo), which I'm sure will work fine, for $293 each. I'm probably going with those unless there's a good reason not to. Thanks.

    I got a set of EBC waves for the SV and so far have been happy with them. Can't really compare them to the stock pair though cause those were worn past the thickness spec so it wouldn't be anything resembling apples to apples.

    from what I read online is that the EBC's have a lot of issues with them getting warped. not sure if this is an old issue that they have corrected but if you search the interwebs you'll see what I'm talking about.

    I ordered some more of the Brembos that came stock on the bike. The price seems decent and I haven't had any problems with their rotors so I guess I should stick with that. The forged OZ wheels they're going on showed up today.
