Yes, but in Australia not USA , sorry.
I got slot and dimple, very happy. Little bit more pad wear but it really grips.
hopefully some one local to you can help

The guys at TrueDisc come highly recommended in the motorcycle world. They might be able to do bug stuff

I have access to a machine shop so this part is taken care of
It's the pattern and depth etc. Is there a dimple 3-2-3-2 sorta pattern ? And if I decide on the slotted.....wonder if the curve should be a certain radius ?
