I've had the bike for a couple years now but being out of the country most of that time, I've had to wait to do the various maintenance required. Now it's brakes.
Got all the appropriate caliper rebuild kits (although that's doubtful now as well) but when I went to check the rotors I found very interesting things. On the rear rotor, it's only 7mm left which according to Honda is 2 mm past the wear life. So I check the fronts and that's where it gets interesting.
On the front I've got one sold (thin) rotor and one vented. Giant face palm. Both are past their respective wear limits. So looks like I'm replacing all three. Triple face palm. Thanks previous owner.
After some research it looks like the GL1100 Aspencades are a bit unique compared to all others. Spacers for the front, vented vs solid rotors, one-off rear caliper etc. So, I need help from the experts.
1. I want to do the correct width vented fronts but don't want to pay double what I paid for the whole bike. Is there any vented alternatives out there?
2. Why does the parts manual diagramhttps://www.partzilla.com/catalog/honda ... ront-wheel show four different part numbers for front rotors? (11, 13, 14, 15) Three different styles?
3. I got the exact same caliper rebuilt kit for all three calipers including the pistons but now I'm reading that the rear is different pistons??
4. I should also note that this is now a Naked Aspencade so it's not nearly as heavy as a normal one. Would it be cheaper to switch to the standard/interstate calipers and rotors?
