Price of discs

Postby Blackal » Thu Oct 31, 2013 8:46 pm

Anyone know from memory - how much a BMW replacement disc (or pair) is for a 2004 R1100s (320mm, I think) ?

If I am ever on life support - Unplug me......
Then plug me back in..........

See if that works .....

£200 a pop for genuine BMW discs.

£100 each for brembo ones which seemed to be identical to me.

They are £183.02 inc VAT each from Motorworks plus carriage

https://www.motorworks.co.uk/vlive/Shop ... 5_30_HA_50

I have a brand new unused genuine BMW pair that I was going to put on here next week for £280 posted

I got an MOT advisory one year that said mine were pitted and by the following year they would need replacing so I got a new set and every MOT test for the next 4 years didn't flag it. I also have a rear if you need it.

Let me know
Steve

Not certain about the Brembo's but most other pattern discs are a bit slimmer than the BMW ones so the washers/screws need replacing as I recall.

Thanks for that - they don't appear to be getting any cheaper with age, then :?

My mistake. Pattern parts are 5mm instead of the 4.5 of OE therefor different bolts/washers are needed.

I'll check the weight/carriage and see what I can do. Motorworks want £7.50 for carriage but they have a regular account with a courier unlike myself so 1st class recorded is expensive as they weigh a bit. They're at my folks. I'll be picking them up at the weekend.

I've just won a brand new pair off Ebay from a BMW main dealer who wanted £8.00 postage (open auction).

Got them for £134/pair + postage :hello1:

(I had in the back of my mind - that they were around £140 each, retail)

That's because they probably aren't OE

Oh, a pair, I misread your post. That's an amazing price.
