SIDENOTE:

Be sure to check the disc very carefully for warping, if it's a low mileage disc it should be fine, but the Ninjette is bad for warping discs due to the design.

From my caliper service write-up

Quote:
Unfortunately this is a common problem with EX’s the cause is the disc is stretched in the center due to being rigidly bolted to the wheel. *The huge force of braking is transmitted to the wheel through the webbed center of the disc which gets stretched and becomes larger than the space it occupies in the center of the disc. This causes the center to push to the side trying to find room for itself.

*Resulting is a cone shaped disc.
If your in need of the rest of the write-up let me know.
