You can make your own by modifying one of the off-road disk. I did this using a carbon disk. It was originally too big in diameter but I was able to sand it to the correct diameter. I am using bare brake plates on it.

On the MSR options parts....

Is the midshaft hollow or solid titanium, and whats the weight difference between it and the stock one.

Any plans on a hollow steel main shaft?

I'm however using teflon brake pads with two brake disc (one of them has a diff gasket glued with ca as spacer) and it works well, the mtx3 cooling spacer is too wide
