For a 16v ABS.

Rear first as it's past its sell by date. The front have 'a bit left', so I'll look to them later in the year.

BMW NOS are too pricey, so (unless you know different) my options are s/h

or new EBC

I thought there was a Brembo option but cant see it with ABS.

EBC every time. Better than original. Second-hand are usually worn-out and overpriced although, to be fair, that one looks pretty decent.
I suppose it really comes down to how long you're going to keep the bike; a cheap fix for an MOT or something to ride for a few years.

I've just bought one of these for my 16V:
https://www.motorworks.co.uk/vlive/Shop/Parts.php?T=6&Q=BRA00661

5.0mm thick new, marked with min. thickness 4.5mm.
Use FA18 organic pads rather than sintered to get a decent life out of the disc.

I have successfully replaced the rear disc on two x K1100's using the above - you do need to remove the rivets for the rear one. I have not tried the front ones but they are well priced.

what did you use to put them back together? Also notice the minimum thickness is much less for the after market one. Do you remember what the thickness was new?

I used flat head allen bolts to fit them, the discs are 5mm thickness and  they are working out fine for me. You need to remove the abs ring and then grind out the rivets. I find it hard to justify the price of a new one when the bike only cost 350 euro.
