Actually the how-to for changing the rotors is really not clear or not there. I was looking for it once but as far as I remember the anser was a little odd or something

Anyway,
the two bolts will come off and then you will see how super easy that is. Just keep trying bro. Take the wheel off, the two bolts holding the caliper, and then the rotor. Remember that the round thing, piston, needs to be pushed in and it takes a minute or two for it to go in and then you will be able to put everything back together.

I hope that helps.

Slotted rotors + axxis pads from nopi and you will be set. Watch out for the drilled rotors since they are known for cracking.
