I found out that the Kinetix discs weigh 15.5kg each. 5kg heavier than my old wavey's and a couple kg's heavier than OE FL discs. To be fair though, they do work well. Stopping power feels as it should, no different to stock. I used OE replacement pads and overall I'm satisfied with them. No...

I bought the Kinetix discs. No problems with them really. They look OE, well made and the performance is good, no noise, feels OE and they are handed left and right so the both discs vent in the same direction. I'm a builder so I'm used to heavy stuff, cement bags etc and I struggled to lift...

I have just fitted new face lift front discs to my PFL RS3 (not OE but the same look and spec). They were noticably heavier, I could barely lift both discs together. The origional wavey discs, well worn with 24k miles on them, weigh 10.5 kg each. It feels like the extra weight has made a...

I'm sure I've seen someone here with the same issue. The valve rattles all the time, touch the spindle for the valve with a screw driver and it stops. I lubed it which helped but not for long. Has any one with a PFL RS3 managed to fix it or ultimately am I looking at a replacement back box...

Hi all. Bit excited. Been considering an RS3 for a long time. I found a 66 plate PFL RS3 with 24k miles, almost all options. Stunning condition aside from a small ding on a door and a few stone chips. Collecting tomorrow. Still has the origional wavey front discs which are worn, the dealer...
