What are your thoughts on this rotor issue. they are not deep. Polaris states that are not bad enough to replace.
Question is, push for new rotors or just resurface.
Front Rotors have groves on front and back of rotor

Resurface & install fresh pads

Not too many places turn rotors anymore. O'Reilly does
Drum / Rotor Resurfacing -
Something is causing that and in all probability it's the pads. Do nothing and it will continue to progress. As others have said I'd replace the pads and rotors should self correct if not too bad.

Drum / Rotor ResurfacingO'Reilly's can do it. When I drilled my rotors I took them there to get resurfaced prior to installing new pads. Was inexpensive and I would recommend you do it with the pad change. Hawk brand have been good for me.

You drilled your own rotors? I have a complete set of takeoffs, I never thought about drilling them myself. I want a set of cross drilled rotors... could of had them any time...

Yes.... It's time consuming and you have to make a pattern that does not have gaps between your holes. Otherwise you will end up with bad groves over time. I got a free set of take off from SSITS 2016 and just wanted to test the idea. 7,000 miles later and no issues to report. They look better that stock.

Well some good news on my brake issue. The dealership replaced passenger side rotor. Driver side not bad and will smooth out.
The also replaced both calipers and brakes. They said that the seals were leaking. -
Sounds like you have a good dealer. I would like to know what dealer it is and where they are located so people can use them if they are close by.
