it looks like you need a pro armor swing arm skid :wink:

 

[Z400]

Or maybe PRM skid plates :wink:

 

[thrshr]

pro armor dammit

 

[Barely Legal]

looks good. You got it from Rocky Mountain ATV right? I think I'll go order one.

 

[DadsZ400]

Yes I got it from Rockymountainatv, it was a Titax brand for $49.99 they were out of EBC for $89.99.
Did not notice any differance in braking but it stops just fine.
Yeah I want to get some skids but the wife said I need to slow down on buying things on the Z for a little while.

Kentuckycat,
Very simple to replace. Remove your rear tire, remove the 2 bolts holding the caliper on, remove the 4 allen bolts holding the rotor on, rotate the rotor so the mounting flanges line up between the rotor mounting tabs and remove the rotor. reverse to install. I also used some lock tight on the bolts to insure they don't come loose, just make sure you use the removeable type lock tight.

hmmm...pretty easy. My last question is: did it completely stop the squeak? Mine is driving me nuts! I have to do something about it.

 

[Zero Z400]

I ordered my rotor yesterday My rotor is bent pretty bed right now, i can't ride or the pads will go. But hopefully it will be here soon.

Kentuckycat, Yes it stopped the squeak completly, like you it was driving me crazy so I had to do something. I have put a good 15-20 hours on it and it is still quiet and have put it trhrough water crossings while riding to make sure it did not reappear and still no noise.

 

[kentuckycat]

Great! Then that's next on my to-do list. Now I just need to take care of the fronts. (I posted another thread about THAT...) :?

 

[Barely Legal]

I just ordered mine too. I hate that squeak! This drilled unit will look great on there.

 

[kentuckycat]

Finally ordered mine. Can't wait to get rid of that squeaking!!!

 

[Barely Legal]

Mine arrived yesterday. i was going to put it on today but got too busy. I did jack it up and pull the wheel, so I'll do the rest tomorrow.
Then I'm ridin!

 

[Fullthrottle]

Mine's warped also. I just ordered a new one from Rocky Mountain ATV.. Suzuki should have to foot the bill!

 

[Zero Z400]

I got mine on yesterday!! I also got my AC skid plate on so i just need a sprocket which is on order. I wanted to have a tad more acceleration so i got a 41tooth, is a 41 like putting a 13.5 in front? (I know there is no such thing as a 13.5) Thats what i thought and i hope i'm right. I'll get a pic when i'm done.
