FAQs

Which motorcycles are compatible with the MD6118D?

This disc is exclusively engineered for the Yamaha 750 XTZ Super Tenere produced between 1989 and 1997.

What is the purpose of the zinc coating?

The 3-micron zinc coating provides a sacrificial layer that significantly improves rust resistance, keeping the disc looking new and functioning correctly.

Does this disc come with mounting hardware?

No, the package includes the disc itself; ensure you have the six correct bolts for the installation.

How do I ensure the disc does not warp during installation?

Always use a torque wrench to tighten the six mounting bolts in a cross-pattern to distribute pressure evenly.

Why is the steel material significant?

The high-quality HPSR low-carbon steel provides an 18% improvement in friction coefficient compared to standard steel discs.

Troubleshooting

Braking feels spongy after installation

This is typically caused by air in the hydraulic lines; bleed the brake system thoroughly to ensure fluid pressure.

Disc surface showing uneven wear

Verify that the brake caliper pins are lubricated and sliding freely; stuck calipers often cause one-sided wear.

Brakes squealing during operation

Check that the pads are properly seated and consider using a brake pad anti-squeal compound on the back of the pads.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • 18% higher coefficient of friction for better stopping power
  • Enhanced rust resistance via specialized zinc coating
  • Optimized heat dissipation through bird-wing drill pattern
  • High-quality HPSR steel construction
  • Direct fitment for specified Yamaha models

Cons

  • Requires professional installation to ensure safety
  • Limited compatibility beyond specific Yamaha XTZ models
  • Requires proper bedding-in procedure for optimal friction

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the MD6118D requires basic mechanical knowledge and access to a torque wrench.

  1. Ensure the wheel hub surface is clean and free of corrosion before mounting the new disc.
  2. Align the disc so the bolt holes match the hub, using all six required bolts.
  3. Tighten bolts in a star pattern to the manufacturer-specified torque settings to avoid warping.
  4. Clean the disc surface with an approved brake cleaner to remove any oils or protective residue from packaging.

Compatibility is strictly limited to the Yamaha 750 XTZ Super Tenere produced between 1989 and 1997. Regular care involves visual inspections for scoring or thinning and using high-quality brake pads to ensure the long-term longevity of the disc surface.
