Manufactured from laser-cut, high-carbon 420 stainless steel, this rotor is double-disc ground to ensure perfect parallel flatness, resulting in consistent, predictable lever feel and maximum pad contact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe patented wave design sheds heat rapidly during heavy braking and continually wipes the brake pads clean of mud and debris during off-road use. For the newly updated 2025+ Suzuki DR-Z4S, this 270mm rotor serves as a premium, direct OEM-size replacement. For older 2000-2024 DR-Z400 models (which came from the factory with a smaller rotor), this exact same disc functions as an \"oversized\" brake upgrade, drastically improving stopping power when paired with the necessary caliper relocation bracket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePatented Wave Design:\u003c\/b\u003e Rapidly dissipates heat and continually cleans the pad surface to prevent brake fade and glazing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHigh-Carbon 420 Stainless Steel:\u003c\/b\u003e Laser-cut and heat-treated for maximum friction, warp resistance, and longevity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDouble-Disc Ground:\u003c\/b\u003e Ensures exact parallel flatness for smooth, consistent braking feedback at the lever.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDirect Replacement (2025+):\u003c\/b\u003e Serves as a direct bolt-on OEM replacement for the standard 270mm front rotor on the new DR-Z4S.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOversize Upgrade (Pre-2025):\u003c\/b\u003e Acts as a high-performance 270mm oversize upgrade for older DR-Z400S\/E models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat's in the Box:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1x Galfer 270mm Front Wave Brake Rotor (DF298W)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e(Note: Caliper relocation bracket and mounting bolts are not included).\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003ci\u003eFitment:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003ci\u003e2025–2027 – Suzuki DR-Z4S\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003ci\u003e2016–2026 – Yamaha YZ250X\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003ci\u003e2020–2026 – Yamaha YZ125X\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFitment Notes:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e2025+ Suzuki DR-Z4S:\u003c\/b\u003e Direct bolt-on replacement (OEM size is 270mm).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e2000-2024 Suzuki DR-Z400S \/ DR-Z400E:\u003c\/b\u003e Fits as an oversized upgrade. \u003cb\u003eRequires a caliper relocation bracket (sold separately)\u003c\/b\u003e to accommodate the larger 270mm diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe 270mm Advantage:\u003c\/b\u003e For years, DR-Z400 owners have had to upgrade to a 270mm rotor just to get modern stopping power out of a heavy dual-sport. Suzuki finally recognized this and made 270mm the stock size for the 2025+ DR-Z4S. If you are on a new DR-Z4S, this is a premium OEM replacement that clears mud better than the stock disc. If you are on an older DR-Z400, this is the exact rotor you need to modernize your front brakes—just don't forget you have to order the bracket to make it fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBedding-In Process:\u003c\/b\u003e Installing a new brake rotor without properly bedding in the pads will lead to poor performance and premature wear. We highly recommend installing a fresh set of brake pads anytime you install a new rotor. To bed them in, perform several moderate stops from medium speed, allowing the brakes to cool slightly between stops. This transfers an even layer of friction material from the pad to the new stainless steel rotor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation:\u003c\/strong\u003e When installing the kickstand extender, it is recommended that you apply a drop of medium-strength (blue) \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.tmbrmoto.com\/products\/stuck-nutz-threadlocker?variant=42986783342757\" title=\"Shop for blue Stuck Nutz or Loctite at TMBR MOTO when you need to work on your motorcycle.\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: rgb(215, 65, 35);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSTUCK NUTZ Threadlocker\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e to the threads of the small mounting bolts.
