On the road, my bike discs are drilled but my road car one's aren't.

Never done a back to back comparison as the racer has always had drilled discs.

There's a bloke who drills GL1000 discs (he does several patterns) - I wondered if it was worth getting the Mog ones done. As I've got disc wheels you'd never see them, but I'd know they looked cool which is more important smile


Fosseway Seems reasonable price for slotted and drilled discs.
