Rotoras installed! have question

so i installed the rotoras with ultimates yesterday... with a full rear brake job, flushed fluids, and also a nice move up to syntec motor oil

one thing is the slots for the rotors face forward instead of backward like on my aem rotor upgrade for my gsx... is that correct? i mean i installed them correctly, it was labeled from the manufacturer which side goes where so i couldn't have messed up. just looks weird for the slots to be raked forward... looks like this / not \

is that correct?

Mine are the same way. I sat there for a minute and I thought they were on backwards, but I know for sure I did not mix up the rotors. So I can only assume they are on correctly.

Yes, the slots should sweep from the inner of the rotor out when it hits the pads. You want the gases approaching the diameter NOT the center.
