Need a favor... (Brakes)
Can somebody run out to the garage and see if their rotors move a little bit. I know these are semi floating but mine feel completely locked up. Had a friend with a GSXR-750 that was having pulsing/vibration problems like I am having with his front end. Ducati has replaced my rotors once and it was OK for a while.
My friend found out his rotors were seized and not floating at all and once he got them freed up the vibrations and pulsing went away.
Mine don't move at all. Can't remember if they ever did as I've never thought to check them.

not to worry amico ... the stock front rotors on the hypertard (base and s models) are billed as semi-floating ... but in reality do not float enough to really move them by hand ... certainly not like aftermarket full floating rotors like axis or others offer.

Mine had no movement, interesting enough my front rotors did poos and were replaced under warranty.
The shuddered like a bastid from about 6000 km old.
