I'm looking for brake disks for my mk3 - Yamaha ones are insanely expensive, EBC sell some for around £125 (each - who the hell needs a single brake disk?) via VE-UK. I've seen some NG ones on easyparts, but they are €100, but add VAT etc and it comes out same as EBC!

When I replaced my brake disks a couple of years ago I bought them online from Italy, pattern parts but excellent quality. Obviously now Brexit has buggered up free trade you will get stiffed for import fees etc but it seems like Italy has a wealth of Maxi scooter spares suppliers, as does France but less so. Even the Spaniards seem able to rustle up a few parts for Maxi scooters. A shame the UK supply is a bit limited, perhaps stuff from across the channel might be cheaper even with the charges?

I know "All Bike Engineering" in London make brake rotors/disks, perhaps look into their range of items available ???

On page 30 of their brake disk PDF catalogue it shows the Tmax models, so it might be worth a quote from them ?

Interesting - thanks.
Since they've sold something like 200,000+ Tmaxs in Italy, I guess that the market for parts there is correspondingly big!
