RS250 brakes

Thu Aug 11, 2011 4:17 pm » Post: #1 » Download Post

I'm looking for a pair of brake discs for my NX5 RS250.
I have these calipers which I want to fit.
.
No problem there.
The problem is correct discs for these calipers are 290mm diameter not 296mm diameter like the standard NX5 discs.
I have seen a couple of bikes fitted with what I think are the correct 290mm Brembo discs I'm after, an NF5 RS as below and also an MC21 with and NX5 front end fitted to it.

I pretty sure NF5 RS's used 296mm diameter discs?
Am I getting my knickers in a twist over nothing??? What's 3mm between friends... Confused Laughing
Yes, I do know I could just use the standard Honda discs or any other 296mm diameter discs with the correct offset but wheres the fun in that?!
Any help would be appreciated.

I'll have a check on the disc size, but I'm sure my NF5 (in the picture) has 296mm disks. They aren't Brembo BTW, they are Sunstar or something.

Brembo do list a 290mm for Hondas, but they have recently updated their website and all I can find is this

Thank you for the reply. Yes, I've seen the new Brembo catalogue, but could not find exactly what I was after and a phone call to the Brembo importer was meet with silence...
I be interested to find out more about the Sunstar(?) discs fitted to your NF5.
