V,

 

That's about the best I found. I was lucky to find some 'take-offs' from a guy who had hot-rodded his Spot1100.

 

You could rob the stockers from the Coppa and put some extra trick waves on it.

Ebay...

 

Lots of Ducati Brembo take-offs.

 

It's where I got the cast iron rotors for my Sport 1100...

 

Ducati has used the same 320mm diameter rotors as Guzzi since the mid-90s on most of thier bikes...

 

Search "Ducati Brake Rotors".

These are a nice upgrade from stock for only $206 each

Of course you can probably get the same, but used, on eBay for half the money.

For my bike I am planning either those or better yet, theses:

for $610 per pair.

The first ones, the World Supersport "Snowflake" rotors are really nice stainless rotors. A friend added these to his Ducati Monster and all I can say is "wow!" They have 6-hole mounting and 10mm offset and will fit our Guzzis.

 

The second ones appear to be "narrow blade" and 5-hole mounting, no offset. I'm guessing they would work on the new 749/999/1098 series, but not our Guzzis (without modification)...

 

 

The "Snowflake" rotors are getting cheaper and work really good. The gold anodised aluminium carrier would look great on a bike with Ohlins suspension...

Guzzitech has been advertising the five spoke full floaters for Guzzis and have not mentioned the need to modify, but I suppose modification may be required.

Worth an email to

Along these lines, what about the rear rotor? I was able to find much broader coverage on fronts once I knew it was the same fitment as a few Ducatis. Anyone know if there is a direct crossover for the rear?
