Hi Got Galfer discs on the T9, do they have to go on certain sides on the front, i.e. is there a left and a right? Or is either side OK? Stupidly I mixed them up. Both look exactly the same and I see no arrow showing direction of travel. Cheers Creamy
I don't know but I'd check with Galfer to be sure The only reason for saying this is I've put on 3 different pairs of discs, from 2 different manufacturers, onto bikes over the past 3-4 years and every pair although looking completely identical in every way have always been marked for left and right. Its beyond me why this is, but being the dummy I am I just obey the instructions and do what I'm told
The discs sets I installed either had a left or right on the packaging or the discs themselves were marked L or R on them with a marker pen The discs weren't stamped, if that's what your getting at, so maybe it means nothing. It still nags me why. As I said no clue...................measuring them with a caliper or placing them side by side they looked absolutely identical, sizes and hole pattern, as far as I could see. Look it might be complete utter bollocks, I have no idea why they were handed, but as it clearly indicated one goes here, the other there, then I thought might as well do as instructed. Maybe somebody who knows what he's talking about will come on, @cookster is probably quite correct and I'm causing you grief for no reason. If I have I apologize, I hate when I cannot see a reason for this sort of thing, but I just thought I'd flag it up
This is them: https://www.sportsbikeshop.co.uk/motorcycle_parts/content_prod/60019 So i've mailed to ask if i need to order a different part for each side or 2 of the same.
Nice looking discs, although personally I'm not a big fan of the wavy type, however that's personal preference and it'd be a dry old world if all liked the same stuff. Be interested to know what the outcome is. I might fire off a question to one of the suppliers to ask the same question now you've reminded me Here are the pair on the Guzzi 1100
@Cream_Revenge they will be fine mate unless obviously stated on the discs, will bolt on either way .
I've sent a mail to ISR to ask why they specifically marked their discs left and right. It also puzzles me as the dimensions for the drawings were identical If I get a reply then I'll post up. Beyond my comprehension.......................glad your sorted and sorry for messing you about
@Tobytyke you are quite correct Got a reply from ISR and they stated that the reason they were handed was due to the hole pattern. The other pair of non-ISR discs I installed were similarly drilled with a specific hole pattern @Cream_Revenge as your discs don't have holes then the discs can go on any side. Large slice of humble pie for OJ!!! :Facepalm: :Sorry: John
