Description
FEATURES
- The steel used in the EBC rotor blades is a special stainless blend with higher friction effect than normal heat treated stainless steel found on stock discs
- Boasts up to 10% improvement in friction effect improving brakes even further
- Weight of the X and XC series is reduced by 5-10% by using a 6 only button drive system on a lightweight alloy center hub, which once again grabs the lead over stock parts
- The SD-System uses a square sided rivet with many advantages
- The SD-System of square sided buttons means that the rotor can expand inwards and outwards unrestrained and that perfect rotor functionality is retained at any speed or load
- This extends the lifetime of the rotor and prevents distortion failures
- Keeps the rotor blades perfectly true and flat throughout their life cycle and technically the only reason for a rotor to need replacement will be impact damage or over a very extended number of miles possible rotor wear limits being exceeded
- This means that a rotor equipped with the EBC Brakes SD-System could last 5-10 times as long as a conventional rotor built with circular buttons
- The drive forces under braking are transmitted over a line contact on the square side of the button compared to the point contact of a circular button
- Two (2) Sets of Rotors Required

Vehicle Information
Yamaha FZ8 Motorcycle - Street (2011-2013)
The Yamaha FZ8, produced from 2011 to 2013, is a versatile naked sportbike known for its strong performance and agile handling. Powered by a consistent 779cc liquid-cooled, 4-stroke, inline 4-cylinder, 16-valve DOHC engine across all model years, it delivers robust torque at low to mid-RPMs and significant horsepower at higher revs. In the North American market, the FZ8 was primarily offered as a single "naked" model, with color options being the main distinction between 2011 and 2012. A notable evolution occurred in 2013, marking a significant mid-cycle update. While the core engine remained the same, the 2013 FZ8 received fully adjustable front and rear suspension, a substantial upgrade from previous years' limited adjustability. Additionally, revised fuel injection settings were introduced to provide a quicker revving character and a more direct throttle response. Aesthetic enhancements included a new muffler shape and dual-textured seat material. These updates aimed to refine the FZ8's ride quality and overall feel. FAQ:
