TK Dischi Freno SSP 6.0 Brake Disc Kit for Yamaha YZF-R1/M (2015-2026)

Crafted in Italy and forged in the heat of MotoGP and WSBK competition, the TK Dischi Freno SSP 6.0 brake disc kit brings genuine racing heritage to the Yamaha YZF-R1/M. The 6.0 mm floating disc design is engineered specifically for the R1 and R1M (model years 2015–2026), pairing a precision-drilled stainless friction ring with an anodised inner carrier available in hard-anodised, black, red or blue — making the brake package as visually striking as it is technically accomplished.

Key Features

• Racing-derived 6.0 mm disc thickness engineered for the extreme thermal and mechanical demands of both track days and road use — verify caliper clearance before fitting.
• Obliquely drilled holes distribute heat evenly, reducing rotor temperatures by up to 20 % and eliminating the fade that plagues lesser discs under sustained braking.
• Reduced rotating mass compared to solid discs sharpens turn-in response and improves overall agility, a direct benefit of TK's WSBK development programme.
• Extended brake pad life thanks to consistent disc surface temperatures and the self-cleaning action of the angled drillings, keeping the contact patch clear in wet conditions.
• Choice of four inner carrier finishes — hard-anodised, black, red or blue — each produced from certified Italian-sourced materials. Note: lead times for red and blue variants may be longer.
• Sold as a complete front axle kit: one left and one right disc, ensuring perfectly matched characteristics on both sides of the fork.

Italian Craftsmanship Meets MotoGP Science

TK Dischi Freno has built its reputation supplying discs to racing teams where margin for error is zero. Every SSP 6.0 rotor leaves the Italian facility having been produced from certified raw materials and verified against strict dimensional tolerances. The friction ring and inner carrier are assembled as a floating unit, allowing the ring to expand and contract freely under heat cycling — the mechanism that prevents disc warping and keeps braking feedback linear lap after lap.

The oblique drilling pattern is not purely aesthetic. Each hole is angled to sweep debris and water from the pad contact surface continuously, so the disc performs as confidently on a damp morning commute as it does during a full-commitment track day on the R1's legendary 998 cc crossplane engine.

Finish and Heritage

The inner carrier finish is where the SSP 6.0 kit allows genuine personalisation. The hard-anodised option preserves a natural aluminium character with maximum surface hardness. Gloss black offers a stealth look that complements the R1's dark bodywork schemes, while red and blue carriers provide a vivid contrast visible through open-spoke wheels. All finishes are anodised — not painted — so the colour is integral to the surface and resistant to brake dust, cleaning chemicals and heat.

Fitment and Compatibility

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

• Yamaha YZF-R1 — model years 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026
• Yamaha YZF-R1M — model years 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026

At 6.0 mm thickness, caliper compatibility must be confirmed before ordering. If your calipers were originally paired with thinner discs, a spacer or caliper bracket adjustment may be required.
