Aside from eBay, any suggestions for an alternate?

There are actually a couple decent yards less than two hours drive from here (chattanooga, tn), but they are...how shall I say....self service. You'd best know exactly what you need, wear your dirtiest shop clothes and take some hand cleaner/shop rags with you. Good deals to be had, though, and God Bless'em for the resources they provide.
Anyhoo, just this afternoon I found a set of KZP rotors from a junked '92 model on eBay. I've emailed the seller concerning the thickness, and hopefully the response will be good news.

Thanks, bountyhunter. I've used m/c junkyards before, but the big problem seems to be those unique wheels and rotors. When I got this bike from my brother a couple years ago, it had a severly bent front wheel. Took me awhile to find one, and when I did on eBay it cost $140+, IIRC. Too bad the wheel didn't come with rotors.

If the rotors are really a pain, I've seen people here replace the whole front end to get new caliper and rotors.
