    A few questions from a New owner

    Hi guys, I bought myself a Bros 650 (im in the UK) last week after riding them a few times and its a great little bike for my size, Im 5'11" but I weigh next to nothing.
    I have some questions regarding suspension and cosmetics mods.
    Ive seen the various different sets up used for the front forks of the Bros But I'd like to keep the stock wheels, Ive seen Twin disc's being used on a stock front bros wheel but Im unsure of what front end was used for this? anyone have a idea what it may have been?
    Also I'd like to raise the rear end to give it more of a aggressive look, is it possible to get a rear adjustable shock and spring or is there one from another bike that would raise the ride height nicely, comforts not really a issue as I do very few miles.
    Lastly has anyone tried to put a Yamaha R1 seat on a Bros, I love the look of the R1 rear end or something that looks very similar.
    Cheers

    as for the rear end, a cbr900rr fits nicely and lifts the rear up about 1.5" or so. And is a whole lot better than stock - it is adjustable. as for the front end - i will have to let someone else answer that!

          My Hawk only has provision to fit 1 disc.If you get another Disc it will bolt onto the F2 wheel but the standard Hawk/Bros right hand leg doesn't have
          any provision to bolt on the caliper but I belive a CB1 does.

          Where abouts in London are u? PM me
