Upgrading the front brakes I believe this is also credited to Uzidzit
Bonneville useful Brake Information Part Numbers
I know most of you have seen the EBC Pro-Lite floating rotor for the front of the Bonneville from newbonneville, Bella Course etc. if you need one quick I got mine from Dennis Kirk, even though they do not list it, bike bandit also has it much cheaper if you know what to get.
So here is the skinny,
Order a LEFT HAND rotor for a Honda CBR600F2 (91-94), this is the same part the above retailers sell, for the Bonneville.
This along with a EBC solid rear and HH sintered Pads Is a super up grade for the factory warp-o-matic rotors!!
Ps warm your bolts for removal and re-install with 242 LocTite @ 22Nm... I said warm not incinerate the bolts, and loosen with an impact screwdriver and good quality 6mm Allen socket an you will not have to replace those $6.00 screws!!! Yes $6.00 each screw....ouch
EBC Part #'s
Pro-Lite front rotor MD601LS
Rear Pads FA2142HH
front pads FA196HH
Rear rotor search Bike Bandit for aftermarket rotor for 02 bonnie and the solid rear will show up, My internet is so slow right now I could not pull it up.
From Thrux-ton-up - Pretech 6 piston caliper from BellaCorse - special deal I worked for 450.00 includes EBC HH pads and stainless steel line. Front rotor is from Honda nt650 320 mm BRAKING wave rotor from Cyclepages for about 212.00. Works very well - 1 finger braking is the norm. Careful - bonnie and thrux brake parts are NOT as a general rule interchangeable. Different size rotors and different mounting points on the fork legs. As a bonnie owner get some EBC HH pads for you stock caliper - that’s your biggest bang for the buck. The 6 piston works well and I think they fit Bonnies - Mike would know. Its a very nice upgrade. Then get a floating 310mm front brake rotor for even more improvement. But unless your hauling down from 100+ MPH straight away speeds all day long (I ride with LEO's so I can get away with this) the stock brakes work just fine, particularly with the EBC HH pads.
