[greater than 0.015" clearance between rotor bolts & fork tubes]

Hmmm.  I didn't think there'd be that much flex.  Is the rotor
carrier hardened?  (probably not, now that I think about it)
I'd hate to try drilling the rotors and damage them.

I'm assuming that it should be done in a mill, a drill press
would work in a pinch, but a flat bit would be needed, not the
usual tapered tip of a normal drill bit.  (this is why I figured
it'd simply be easier to grind the bolt heads in the first place)

And then, How would you chuck the rotor up in the mill without
warping it?
