Brake Disc/Disk/Rotor Replacement
So I'm at the dealer and am told I need new front and rear brake discs with 43k miles on the bike. I looked at what they wanted to charge me for the parts and labor and almost went into cardiac arrest. Replacement looks straightforward but I'm questioning the cost of the parts -- all the OEM sources I've found have them for about $230 EACH -- I can't fathom paying $700 for three pieces of steel!
Anybody else gone through this and looked into aftermarket discs? I found another post referencing NG Brakes (pads and discs) but don't have any experience with them.
Thoughts/suggestions would be appreciated.
