Busa rotors are strong as hell!
break the pads in for a few minutes with small pushes on the HB lever and footbrake pedal. Then some harder braking going a little faster and you're good to go. Takes me about 10 minutes usually.
That's how we used to break pads in on Mountain bike disc brakes, and those are REAL easy to glaze!
Works better with sintered pads.
Btw, new disc=new pads of course!
Very small sandpaper scratching on the disc might help too, very small grain tho!
