Cheers for the comment Cav. FYI the 0.5mm clearance is at the worst point. It spins freely without fouling at any point. I don't expect a forged Dymag to flex.........Hopefully
I m probably just
being very paranoid as if it's clear it's clear. I can't see there
being any flex or thermal expansion tbh so should be fine but I will feel better if I modify it a little to increase the clearance

Well the multi had its service but have been told it needs new discs and new rubber.

11k doesn't sound much Mick. Did he tell you there current thickness in comparison to the service limit measurement?

They are slightly warped more than being worn out, which you can feel under heavy braking . Still not really impressed at only 11k

If there expensive to replace and still plenty of material on them is getting them straightened an option. Possibly the more cost effective option.

11k is nothing for discs.

Is it definitely warped?? More often than not brake judder is down to pad material deposits due to misuse or poor bedding in

Picked it up from the menders, and figured it would be rude to go straight home.
Sounds great sans CATs and the -1 +1 has taken a few kilos off the front!

Ace. I know a few people change the gearing but I felt it was fast enough in stock.
I can't wait to hear it.

It's not that loud as it's still got the mid section baffle box in, but sounds really raspy with loads of pops and bangs.
Early morning run this Sunday if you're free. Can't do a whole day though, got to be at a party at 1pm just south of Stoke.

I'm out Saturday night. I fully expect to still be over the limit by the time you're arriving at your party on Sunday. The next couple of weekends are looking promising though.

Nice, shame it's so hidden.
That's got to be worth a bracket to lift it about an inch??
