TK Dischi Freno SSP 5.5 Brake Disc Kit for Yamaha YZF-R1/M (2015-2026)

Born from the pit lanes of MotoGP and WSBK, the TK Dischi Freno SSP 5.5 brake disc kit brings Italian racing heritage directly to your Yamaha YZF-R1/M. Crafted in Italy from certified materials and finished with a striking anodised inner carrier, this kit is the definitive upgrade for riders who refuse to compromise between track-day aggression and road-going refinement.

Key Features

• 5.5 mm disc thickness engineered to balance rigidity with reduced rotating mass, sharpening steering response and turn-in feel.
• Angled drilling pattern promotes uniform heat dissipation — surface temperatures run up to 20% cooler, eliminating fade during repeated hard stops.
• Reduced rotating mass translates directly into more agile handling and more precise vehicle control, lap after lap.
• Optimised pad contact geometry extends brake pad life and maintains consistent braking feel without glazing or fade.
• Inner carrier available in hard-anodised, black, red or blue — each finish a deliberate aesthetic statement as well as a corrosion barrier.
• Manufactured in Italy from certified steel, meeting the exacting standards that define Italian motorsport supply.

Design, Finish and Heritage

TK Dischi Freno has supplied rotors to the highest levels of European and world motorsport, and the SSP 5.5 kit carries that lineage in every detail. The floating inner carrier is the visual centrepiece: choose hard-anodised for a raw, purposeful look, gloss black for understated aggression, or red and blue anodised finishes for a colour-matched trackday aesthetic. These are not cosmetic afterthoughts — the anodising process hardens the aluminium carrier surface, resisting heat-induced corrosion through thousands of braking cycles.

The angled drilling pattern is another nod to the brand's racing origins. Rather than simple radial holes, the oblique bore geometry allows gas and debris to escape the pad contact zone more efficiently, keeping the friction surface clean and consistent whether you are scrubbing speed at the end of a long straight or trail-braking through a technical chicane.

Performance on Road and Track

The Yamaha YZF-R1 and R1M demand braking hardware that can match their electronics and chassis capability. The 320 mm front disc diameter (with a 330 mm upgrade option) fills the R1's radial-mount caliper bay correctly, ensuring full pad sweep and even wear. The 34 mm friction ring width provides the swept area needed for the R1's power, while the 5.5 mm profile keeps gyroscopic inertia low enough that the front end responds to weight transfer crisply rather than sluggishly. In wet conditions, the drilling geometry clears water from the contact patch faster, maintaining a progressive, predictable bite that builds rider confidence rather than eroding it.

Fitment and Compatibility

This kit is designed and tested specifically for the following models:

• Yamaha YZF-R1 — model years 2015 to 2026
• Yamaha YZF-R1M — model years 2015 to 2026

The kit contains one left-hand disc and one right-hand disc for a complete front axle replacement. Please note that delivery lead times may vary for the red and blue anodised colour options.
