They certainly feel a lot better than the embarrassingly worn out pads and discs I removed

Thanks Steve, I got them from LRI solutions and got the forum discount. They are painted not anodised (which i would have preferred but the cost was alot lot more) I took the orginals off with a battery operated impact wrench but fitted these by hand
 must admit to being pleased with the look. Will be interesting to see how long the paint lasts.
As an extra security layer I now have two locking wheel nuts on each wheel with a different key for each of the locking nuts too 2015 HT XS 90

I like the look of those black wheel nuts, but I'm tight and will paint mine

How do you keep your windscreen seal in such perfect condition?
