  • Front MNS Brake Rotor

    Looking for a front brake rotor for a MNS (gold finish on it). I managed to pinch a rock or something under a set of replacement pads, and gouged the surface of one of mine.

    Bug, I remember reading somewhere that the front rotors are side specific?
    Something about the dish or cup out distance from the mounting bolts.
    I could be completely wrong. Anyone else?

      Only the slotted rotors are side specific, and that is only an aesthetics thing anyway because the slits would be "backwards".

        Good point! That means I need the Left Front rotor.
