The Warp 9 Racing KLR 280mm Front Floating Rotor is a stock-size front brake rotor designed for the Kawasaki KLR650 (1987–2019). Built in a floating style for consistent braking performance, it maintains the original 280mm diameter so installation does not require a caliper bracket. This kit includes the rotor bolts, making it a straightforward replacement when refreshing worn brake components. With a 4.1mm thickness and a 9-bolt mounting pattern using included M8 hardware, it’s set up to match the KLR650’s OEM sizing and mounting while delivering the feel and function riders expect from a floating front rotor.
This front rotor uses the stock 280mm diameter for the Kawasaki KLR650, so it replaces the original size without changing brake geometry. Because it is the stock size, no caliper bracket is needed, helping keep installation simple while staying within the factory rotor diameter for the 1987–2019 KLR650 fitment range.
Designed as a floating-style front brake rotor, this setup is intended to deliver consistent braking feel under real-world riding conditions. The floating construction is specified as the rotor’s style, making it a direct floating replacement option for riders who want a floating rotor in the OEM 280mm size.
Rotor bolts are included for the 9-bolt mounting pattern, using M8 hardware. That means the mounting bolts come in the box rather than needing to be sourced separately, and the rotor is specified to mount with 9 bolts (M8), included.
