They are definately stronger then the Brembos on my '04 KTM300.
I do like the power of them what I don't like is the fact they lack progression in that there is no in between firm braking and full lock up. Not that I can do stoppies anyway but I can't on this bike at the moment as the front goes from being firm and biting moderately to locking without warning. It has to be the stock rotor. There is stuff all surface area there for the pads to bite.

In any case I'll try a different rotor and hope I'm right. If not you are right in that they are really good. I just don't think they're great. From he sounds of it though most of you are happy with yours so it may just be mine. Or maybe I'm way to fussy
