Hmmm, My bros can now go faster, stick to the road better and deal with uneven roads much much better.......I think i'm missing something.....That picture you posted is ringing some bells. Maybe something to help me stop better.

What model calipers will fit, have you seen any up on yahoo.

Probable have to wait a while till I get some more money in before moving on it though.

[Roberto]

A) YES!

B) How much?!

[severn_owl]

I wonder how much it will improve the braking. Bros brake is already better than the Hawk brake as it has 4 piston. Would love to improve it though.

Hi owl, the issue is not only about actually improving it
but with the old 4-pot becoming of age replacing it with at least
something nearly as good.

Remember, a Bros rebuild kit sells for more than 80.- gbp!

You could do a stoppie in a school bus if you had Lenac's kit.

I want one, it looks very trick! I running zxr400 usd forks with an adapter plate for the Bros caliper. So... my choices are: 1. Leave it as it is as it's fine really, 2. Six pot and make a new adapter plate or 3. Fit a zxr400 front wheel and twin discs... hmmmm, scratches chin and peers in wallet.

Just a little heads up. I'm not sure if that's the actual bros front end. The Bros Caliper is on the left side and the fork lower is different. I'm not sure that this will be a straight bolt up.



Just in case you're interested the forks, bracket and caliper are up for sale.

[raul507]

Oh wait that is the left side. I'm sorry I'm in Japan everything is backwards here.

[Goshawk]

Mmmm, 6-pots.

Too bad they don't have this conversion kit for the CB-1, same stock arrangement, but on the right fork leg.

-P.
