I think I have a set of 900f rotors as well. Would look for calipers / hangers for 900f. Pro link rotors are HEAVY :)
Some project for winter days :) . June is here and hardly any riding days due to weekend rains and cold.

I know that I keep harping on this, but the EBC HH pads are a great upgrade and 100% worth doing if you go this route. On my bike, the 1100F rotors & calipers with the HH pads and stock master cylinder were a 2-finger setup.

Yes Phil.
I think you advised me earlier on those pads somewhere.

It will be 900f caliper hangers rotors /he pads and the emulators. Apologies to OP for high jacking the thread
