Even lighter rotors??

Why not just shave the rotors down if you really want to save weight?

For a machinest to do one set it'd be a lot. Cheaper for someone like Z1 to order like 100 pairs at whatever cost over the original.

Can't see people ordering 100 sets of rotors that don't last as long or cost a few hundred extra dollars.

And if they can turn your brakes for $10, just have them turn them like 5 times, lol.

Lol I don't want to lose thickness. It shouldnt be that much. Someone needs to make the rotor right? Whether its a mold or something, changing it to a new shape/design should be easy.
