NX250 front brake disc

Beitrag von Zigomatix »

Hi, I had to change my brake disc because it was veiled (Don't know if it is the correct English word !).
I bought a KYOTO one.
Original bolts are 4 M6 x 100, 17 or 18 mm long
Problem the disc holes are 10 mm diameter. I cannot put 6 mm bolts in a 10 mm hole ! It seems that almost all the after market discs has 10 mm holes.
Did any one had to change his disc and wich bolts did you use.
I went to a motorcycle dealer yesterday and they did not manage to find correct bolts from pro-bolt catalog.

Thanks for the answer

Patrick

Hi Patrick,

I’m afraid that you can’t use the 10mm disc on your hub.

There have been two different versions. From 88-89 the disc was attached with bolts with a 10mm collar. And from 88-94 the collar was 6mm. That overlap puzzled the manufacturers of aftermarket brake discs which often get that wrong.

EBC has the correct brake discs:

EBC MD6001D https://www.ebay.de/sch/i.html?_from=R4 ... _PrefLoc=2
For AX-1 NX 250 J / K / R / R3 89-94
Ø holes: 6,5mm

EBC MD6008D https://www.ebay.de/sch/i.html?LH_PrefL ... +&_sacat=0
For NX 250 J / K MD21 87-90
Ø holes: 10,5mm

Now the problem is that also the hubs have different hole diameters. The hubs for 6mm brake discs have also 6mm holes – so even with 10mm bolts you can’t attach the 10mm disc. Unless you bore 10mm holes into the hub, which I would not recommend. On the pic is a hub for 10mm bolts.

Again thanks Michael
you are a knowledge well !
Well it appears tha I bought the wrong disk version. I'm disapointed because it is new and was only 45 €.
I asked the seller if he would take it back but I doubt it. I will see.
See you.

Patrick
