It actually has an original rotor on it that was thinned and resurfaced.

Which parts are you speaking of?

Hey Eric,

What was the swing-arm from? Was that one of the four T500 S/A's?

How the heck are you anyway?

Yes it was. A local friend of mine called this morning and bought it. He'll do it justice.

Out of work with work related injury. Guess I'm not 20 anymore. Gotta quit working and acting like I am. Not easy to do.
