Nope nor me- at least not knowingly, there might have an occasion when I was too young to care or notice on some shed I was thrashing around on at the time but most old bikes had discs so thick they would have had to have been seriously abused or whacked to have warped I would think.

Only problem I have had disc related was on my old GSX-R750WT where the alloy carriers began to wear from the movement of the bobbins. I spoke to my friendly Suzuki dealer who put in a out of warranty claim (the bike was five years old!) for a new pair of front discs and carriers along with a pair of mirrors as they had started to 'speckle' and within two weeks it was approved and the parts arrived at my door.

Have always wondered if you'd get that service from other marques but the way Ducati have shunned the swollen fuel tank issue I somehow doubt it.

Luddite, I take it you didn't bother asking?
