Brembo rotors -- Somewhat Laverda related

Good morning,
The front discs I am using on my 1978 1200 Jota America are 310 mm items from a Triumph Super III, using adapters I made up myself based on a drawing from Redax (Thank you!).  The calipers are 4-pot staggered bore Grimecas I removed from my Triumph Trackmaster when I switched it over to a Hurst Airheart setup.

The friction surface of the rotors has warped enough that they are unusable, and they are too thin (less than 5 mm) to be turned.  However, the carrier is in excellent condition and the floating buttons and their mounting points on the carrier are pristine.  I have been looking for a source for just the rotor portion.  Yoyodyne has listing for just 'friction surface' sounds like what I am looking for but all they can tell me is "These are replacement frictions (Steel part) for the brembo race rotors.  These are usually used by the Factory teams. We do not have a drawing."

I can get replacement assemblies from Galfer and EBC for about $300 each but if I can just replace the rotor portion and save some bucks I would rather do that.

As always,
thanks in advance.

Ask Bushman if he would make a set for you. He is churning out discs only for standard triples.
 
On re-reading my question I realized I was not being clear about what I wanted.
It seems to me that since a brake disc assembly is comprised of a carrier, a rotor ('friction surface') and the mounting buttons, if all I need is the rotor then I should be able to buy just that part.  The problem I'm having is finding someone who sells only the rotor.  The Yoyodyne listing suggests that's what they're selling but from their cryptic response I can't be sure.  I would think that any rotor of the proper dimensions (OD, ID, button dia and BCD, number of buttons, etc.) would work.  Or doing I just need to sigh and pony up the $$?

As always, thanks to all.

Well, I understood it.
Jim Bush is making exactly that part for standard brakes.
Saying that it may be a LOT cheaper to buy a complete set of discs from a breaker.
