That is very impressive. You have done a great job.
Awesome dude. Can I suggest an iceblock stick [or spatula?] in the spokes?
Only a Rat can win a Rat Race!
You're my hero!
Thats fricken awesome.
Good work!
A momentus day today, broke the 100km distance traveled mark, and hit 68kmhr (indicated)
I've also bee noticing this is awesome for roundabouts, well low COG means it turns in easy, and no low rpm driveline chatter means it's piss easy going smooth as. Be wicked fun to gymkhana I reckon.
On another note, the brakes are still pretty shit, do pads lose their grip after a long time? cos they have had bugger all use for a decade, but plenty of meat left on em.

Let me try the brakes so I stop thinking my big as fuck twin four pots are shit
It is possible, try sanding the disk and pad? There may be a bit of a glaze or something.
Or, I have two spare front discs, two four pot calipers with good pads and one twin pot caliper + rear disk, but the seals are munted.
Take your pick, or throw them on the bros, you know you want to.
Haha, was going to give it another, and possibly last, test run today, but I'm think postponed due to precipitation, rides should be available soon.
Might give em a sand, I also think we put some drum shoes in the oven once to do a similar thing. Or I could just get some new ones, doesn't sound cheap though...
Trouble is the bros won't take another disk with the stock rims, and I like my egg-beater rims

Measure between the bolt holes, I'm fairly sure the Bro is 68mm center to center, if you we could throw a proper caliper on it. you know you want real brakes The ZZR calipers have the same bolt spacing as a VTR1000, which to my knowledge was the same spacing as the CB, which in turn had the same caliper (Just two of 'em)
I'll probably get the shits when I find there's no engine braking haha
