Twinpot Brake upgrade on 78 Skunk

[salty_monk]

Yes no need. One guy fitted a CBR rotor back there for appearances.. for me the slotted GS rotor is close enough. Bike brakes rarely match F-R anyway...

Yea I understand that the performance benefits are not going to be great but just for looks. I like the newer calipers and discs. And also It would be nice to eliminate the bar that stabilizes the caliper.

It's just not needed. With adequate front brakes there's very little weight on the rear under hard braking anyway, the stock brake is fine back there.

Pretty awesome idea. Has anyone done anything to upgrade the rear disc in a similar fashion? I'll be honest that I didn't read all 57 pages of this thread to see haha

Have PM'd you.

actually they did not sell, no bids, already relisted once, watch that auction and see if they get relisted again.

That was a good price and they went quick!

Doesn't really matter in my experience, don't hit them too hard you just want to remove any old pad material residue
