Will the madness ever end??

[Rex Winters]

Just got my bike back on the road. Coming out of the parking lot after work, go about 5 feet, and my rear tire locks up and I skid to a halt (luckily didnt dump the bike, since I was in a turn). After some trouble shooting, I find one rear rotor button missing, two hanging loose, and one jammed in the pad assembly. I backed the bike up and got the jammed one out. I carefully moved the buttons around so there was only one in a row missing and limped it home. Now I cant find a source to get 4 replacements. I have searched the threads and talked with WSW, but still cant find some. Any ideas from anyone? (bigdogpartsking wont answer the phone tonite, if they have them) Thanks for the help once again...
(So far Tampa has been a bad experience...)

Your going to have to stay on partsking.
Their a really busy couple
Sometimes they answer right away and send immediately sometimes it takes a few days.

I would suggest buying all new but if you want some used ones pm me your info and ill throw 4 in an envelope and snail mail them to you tomorrow. Assuming my 05 pit is the same.

Bigdogpartsking or as Boo was pointing to QTM has them. Call them at 714-575-5000 ext. 210 ask for (Tara). They're $4.75 a piece, I believe.

Thanks for the help guys. I couldnt find them last night...or at least anyone that would answer the phone. I am trying to get some local to avoid the few days wait for shipping. Otherwise, looks like QTM or bigdogpartskingpin if I can get ahold of either. Thanks for the offer Jason, I am gonna try to find new...

I simply went to a solid rotor that had the same design. Now, no more having to worry about buttons

 

[soonertodd]

You need to check your brake pads,when they wear down too thin the metal backing will roll the clips off the buttons causing them to fall out. I went with a solid rotor also,no more buttons and much cheaper to replace

 

[Rex Winters]

Good tip Banned. I will check them. I am sure my button that got jammed up screwed my pads up pretty good. Afraid to pull them apart to see the carnage...
