I would think so since his helmet says ZX-12.

oh....didn't see that

"After doing a thorough analysis and inspection on the vehicle, the fairing design, shaping of the headlight, and curvature of the tailsection....we still came up with nothing."

"Well then doctor, how did you come up with a conclusion?"

"Well....it said it on the helmet."

Looks like he only removed the left side rotor. Removed to show the wheels .

Wave rotors look cool but leave something to be desire as far as functionality... then reducing your primary braking power by 50%...
Not something I would do... but I still think this bike is awesome!

I was under the impression wave rotors dont overheat and maintain braking power, if not increase it.
