    OK, so I got my R1 Brakes and Rotors installed on Saturday, as well as the front bearings repacked. So far so good. The brakes seem to function good, although I do see the brown tinge on the rotors that Biju was talking about.

    R1: Can you explain/comment on this please? Just to give all of us anal VXers some peace of mind on this?

    Thanks - Bart

    Hm...I'm not sure what the brown is. Biju, if you can send me some pictures thru PM that'd be great. It might just be nothing too much to worry about, but I'd like to see it anyways.

    nfpgasmask, good to hear they're working for you. If you experience the same problems as Biju, feel free to let me know. I don't want this to be of a big concern to other buyers. Thanks

    Cheers!
