Hmmm...I thought the R1100S OEM rotors were stainless. Mine sure seem like it. I have a meehanite iron rotor (from Kosman specalties) laying around and it surface-rusts like a bandit, but as Bob said, the pad scrubbing action when first engaged takes it right off.
Stainless in NOT rust PROOF, just very rust resistant, some more, some less, in it's various alloys. Moybin is a pretty darn good jackleg metallurgist, he could probably speak to this with great accuracy...
