Need suggestion for rotors

I will be purchasing some rotors and brake pads here soon. I think i am going with the Hawk pads and not sure on rotors. Anyone have any suggestions?

I would love to but there really isn't any need to except for prettiness.

Just get some good rotors and some aggressive pads and you'll be straight

Drilled rotors are for one reason only:

Weight savings and on a bike every oz counts.

On a car drilled rotors are for big rotors...not ours...stick with slotted IF you want something other than brembo blanks

The GMPP drilled/slotted rotors do far better than the stock SS/SC rotors and are more than reasonable, assuming you've got 5 lugnuts per wheel, lol.
