Hey guys, Today me and a mate changed my brakes over with my other brakes (GT Leggy items). Got to the last rotor (drivers side rear) and the disc doesnt wanna come off. Tried soaking it in WD40 3 times and tried loosening up the handbrake cord. Hasnt budged. The things on solid and we dont know what to do next. Ideas appreciated very much so!!!!!! Cheers guys, Ash

Tried putting a 10mm bolt in the holes that are in the center of the rotor?

Ha! I had that problem when i removed the brakes from my GT.

Except it was the passenger rear that was stuck. As above, 10mm bolt in the those threaded holes and it'll push off.
