'90 KX500 Front Brake improvements?

<< < (2/3) > >>

KXcam22:
For my '92 I read in a magazine to use dunlopads and a lever from a 92 0r 93 (can't quite remeber which) CR250.  Anyway, I followed their recomendations and the results were excellent.  I still have the bike and the front brake is still a one finger stopper. Cam.

I found that fitting a 320 mil Braking Wave disc helped quite a lot :wink:






Only trouble is that the disc is slightly thicker and I have to wear the pads down slightly before they will fit :(

gowen:
Rick, tell me about this front brake system for around $150. I'm instrested, as I'm getting my ass kicked for lack of front brake. It would be worth $150, if it improves the front brake even the slightest.

mikesmith:
Over sized rotor.
