SICOM T-Drive DMC Ceramic Front Brake Discs for Ducati

"To explain the SICOM brakes feeling...I guess starting with the obvious one is the weight - both SICOM rotors together weigh the same as a single steel stock rotor - so the bike "tips" into corners noticeably easier and in general the bike changes direction much faster - more like a 600, if that makes sense.

With steel rotors and a sintered pad (like a Z04) at the initial moment of braking, there is a definite aggressive "bite" and you can feel a sudden weight transfer onto the front end. The SICOMs do not have that sudden bite - they feel more like someone has got hold of the back of your shirt and starts pulling you back.... at first I thought I was not getting any braking effect without that weight shift onto the bars - but sure enough, I was being slowed down.

Once I got used to the absence of the sudden weight shift my confidence started going sky high and It allowed me to confidently increase corner entry speed and trail brake right up to apex, because the bike was not pivoting onto the front tire so aggressively …and it’s more stable under me."

"I only got the chance to fit and try the discs yesterday… and apart from some slippery moments before bedding them in, I have to say WOW!

The difference they make to the handling of the motorcycle is tangible and significant! …and they stop pretty damn well (getting used to the different brake lever feel) now that they’ve been bedded in!

...I’m really loving them!"

"Best brakes I ever had...Almost no brake dust, brakes just fine in wet and the same or better in dry conditions, major weight loss."

"Absolutely brilliant! They’re really, really good, I’d really recommend them.

On every brake stop you can feel them getting better and better… I’m down to one or two fingers now instead of four."

"I had the fronts installed, they made a bigger difference in handling than even the CF Wheels did.

The SICOM rotors made a noticeable difference on turning, between the CF wheels and those lightweight rotors I literally just turn my head on 120 mph sweepers on the highway to turn the bike, and with more lean the bike just dives in with no effort at all."

UPDATE: "I was one of the earlier adopters of the Sicom Rotors, love them, still use them and after 40 or so track days no signs of wear."
