Do it up right and up grade to 8 piston like the 09 and 2010.

Seriously, The calipers are going CHEAP from LAP right now on e-bay. The come unbranded, but loaded with pads. You'll need a 19mm (3/4") master cylinder to go with it, but the upgrade is HUGE.
Good advice Cooter thanks. The EBR FRONT BRAKE ROTOR, 5MM FINNED (H0201.1B6) arrived very well packaged and presented yesterday. Installed last night and contemplating which of the three bed-in procedures offered in this thread should be applied. I want to go with the OP's recommendations to lend credibility to the post. It's a very nice piece of equipment.
I recovered completely with ebay as the Slovokian seller was unresponsive to the images of his burnt rotor... full refund LOL

Don't worry about the specifics that closely. All three of the bed-in procedures describe the same thing. Slowly heat the pads and rotor (but not too HOT), then let them cool completely. Simple, don't overthink it.
If you do overthink it, go with the MFG recommendations of the PADS. Its a more important variable than the rotor.
The same exact procedure as Cooter researched and the one that burned up the Slovokian steel, NO MERCY!
Expecting the EBR rotor to show SOME sign of high temperature... there was nothing to see. Smooth as silk all the way through each stage of the bed-in. A pleasurable experience, this aftermarket rotor is all its said to be.
Now on to the rear rotor.

About to bed-in another aftermarket rotor. This time the rear rotor will be replaced with the 'BRAKING' product. New EBC sintered pads will be used for this process using this threads original bed-in speeds and intervals.
