I wonder if anyone has had the issue with the bigger rotor?

It's pretty obvious that the little rotor on the RX3 would be fine for the TT and even the itty bitty rotor on Q brakes well and has no pulsation. I just think the standard RX3 rotor is too small a surface for dispersing that much inertia for the weight of it. The RX3 is no "Twiggy"" for a 250. No science here, just a guess.

So far, with the sintered pads, mine's been fine...but the last thing I do is ride aggressively. Time will tell.
