Great weight saving and stopping power. Plus less heat transfer. They do require DMC pads also.
Actually, we have been advised by the manufacturer that pad material may be more flexible than you think.
How do the sicom carbon rotor on sicom pads compare to say a Brembo t drive on Brembo z04
hey have you tried this combo ... these brake rotors + gp4 rr + sicom disc brakes ? how do they perform . also any other pad recommendations other than sicom pads ????
Hello i have an incoming Streetfighter V4SP in the next months…..i was looking for improving the brakes….Because for me the brakes are the first thing that change on your bike or on your car…..and so i saw your video….thanks for it and for the infos….
But i have some questions to ask you and even my infos to tell you….
The first thing is….since i have some cars that have carboceramic brakes i know in the automotive world that you must bring the complete package that is discs pads and calipers for carbo ceramic because the heat can melt the standard (steel) pots of the calipers and since of that same thing with pads…..so sicom produce discs and pads to be put together…..and i saw it has also the calipers with ceramic pots (i mean pumping elements) inside….that are wonderful….so i noticed you mounted them with another caliper that is not their (from sicom) but your caliper has ceramic pots also?
Because my main question is (since of what you done) i have on the V4SP the same calipers of the v4 panigale superleggera that are the brembo Stylema R….so really good calipers but i don’t think they have ceramic pots but they have really a good system of heat dissipation….so can i mount the discs and obviusly the pads alone or should i bring also the sicom calipers???? Here in italy where i am are the 2 front calipers alone are about 1800€….and not only the are 108 mm radial so i know that i must change something else…..
If you will have time to answer to me….i will appreciate soo soo much!
Thanks for your time….and compliments your bike is wonderful and really fast….for a naked i will do what is possibile even me to make it a beast!!!!
Can you run any pads with them ? I remember with braketech ones they only recommended ferodo pads ..
We recommend Sicom pads.
How much would they cost for front and rear disc’s
about
Right now we don't have R1 fitments, unfortunately. They're just under $4,000 for the set.
Can I use the OEM Brembo calliper for this? The bike is Ducati Streetfighter V4.
Yes, absolutely.
@@SuperbikeUnlimited So if I understand this correctly, the price on your website is for one brake disk, and I need to purchase two for my bike, right?
@@wangjunxin Front discs are sold as sets. 1 Qty per bike.
@@SuperbikeUnlimited 2850 dollars for a set excluding VAT right?
@@wangjunxin Correct. 👍
Great savings! What do these cost?
They're just under $4,000 for the complete set.
Can I run Brembo 320mm t drives on a standard Ducati V4r
To go down on disc size on an otherwise standard motorcycle, you would have to cut the caliper mounting area on the fork.
If you use 320mm just put the spacer that is between the caliper and fork bottom behind the caliper, as if it were a washer. The spacer is 5mm thick so this will center the discs perfectly since they are 1cm larger. Advantage is that you won’t scratch the wheels when taking off the calipers
my only concern would be wet weather... the GP bikes switch to the T-Drives in the rain, are these carbon discs in the rain equal in stopping power to the steel ones? or are they compromised. Thank you for your time in advance
This is not a full carbon rotor, it's a carbon ceramic. This is the same type of composite that's used on automotive applications - they work fine wet and cold.
@@SuperbikeUnlimited thank you guys for the very speedy reply!
How’s it going Freddy can these be ran on the street
Absolutely!
Why would you need a carbon rear brake? Even MotoGP doesn’t run carbon rears
Because it weighs less than steel.
kind of like why you run carbon wheels less rotational mass every bit counts when money is no object
The real weight savings will be with your wallet!
Great content. Audio is awful, though.
Pointless exercise if not all the same fitment.
… Right. 👍
Mixed measurements! 🤦♂️
Pardon?
