Well someone finally purchased my bike, and I''m taking off my galfer front and rear wave rotors to list for sale soon and my question is....once they are off, i''m keeping the HH galfer front and rear pads on the bike, can them pads be used with the stock rotors or will there be a problem? The front and rear galfer rotors will be in the for sale section within the next week or too as well.

Thanks, Anthony

Scuff the pads lightly before you put on the old rotors. I would also take it for a short drive and get them heat cycled again. The only problem is that the pads now have small grooves and marks from the current rotors. They will not match your stockers, and 50 or so miles down the road they are prolly gonna squal some. Scuffing and cleaning the pads may help that some though.
