GSXR Fork conversion questions

I'm slowly buying the parts for the front end upgrade. The 2007 GSXR 1000 forks are on their way. Has anyone purchased used radial rotors before? I'm interested to here if warped rotors are a likely issue.


Also, as I'm likely to run new braided lines anyway, would you recommend running a line from each caliper to the MC instead of the Y setup the original GSXR seems to have.


Thanks for you input.

Why would it make a difference if the brakes are radial or axial? The rotors are the same...

There is always a small chance of a warped rotor when buying used... irregardless of type of brake or bike... If you are worried, go for new...
