TripperMike needs assistance

Those are not hairline cracks, they are actual hairs embedded in the rotor. Ignore them.

Finally the right answer to Tripper Mike's problem, unreal that the correct diagnosis came from a Canuckistani! The beer and whiskey truck must have broken down on the way to BC's Sunny Similkameen, eh! JSNS, Hosers eh!

I agree with the thread title.

TripperMike DOES need help...and get the hairs out of your rotor Mike. They'll clog up the calipers, lock you up...and then you will have to call Zilla AGAIN!

Fuzzy rotors... huh. Guess the Gen 1 is going through puberty early.

What's next? Exhaust note drops a scale or two? Start chasing Ninja 300's?

Ok so here's the down low on the cracked rotor as it was explained to me at the shop where I got a new tire.

The rotor may very well have been cracked when I looked, but because Mama Yama uses a Cyborg hybred metallic alloy steel, the rotor healed itself. The mechanic seemed quite surprised that I saw it before this self-healing occurred.

I'm sticking to my guns here. It was cracked but it ain't no mo. Ya just gotta love Yamaha and its techno wizardry.

Self-healing hybrid metallic alloy steel.

Sounds like Terminator material to me. That's scary shit, man. It could morph into a spike .........
