Yeah, I scratched my head a bit at that as well... Plus, you've obviously got a lot of top of the line shit right there... and you top of the controls with a cheap plastic brake fluid reservoir? If someone gave me that bike I'd do two things to it immediately... billet reservoir and wheelies.

The thing I noticed right away (thanks for pointing out the exhaust) is that lazer cut rear rotor, and that very normal non lazer cut non vented, non anything front rotor.

Bike is cool but there seem to be a lot of small inconsistencies or places where the builder just went cheap, possibly to afford the carbon fiber?

It kind of looks like a carbon race rotor. But, I've been wrong once or twice in this lifetime..

Very possible, or it could possibly be that it looks exactly like the aftermarket solid brake rotor that my old 1981 cb750 had.
