And after he chastised me for considering running the Suzuki front end that
came with my bike!!! Harumph! That's ok, I think I have finally gathered all
the pieces to put together my dual disc guzzi front end, including the
elusive spacer for the second disc. I think the brembo setup will work a lot
better than the rigged up tokico.

So Darrell, what did you do to optimize your brake? At this point I am planning to go to a smaller master cylinder to reduce effort at the lever. Ken Pitts put a square reservoir brembo from a Jackal on his race bike. Mark at MG classics suggested a 70's Honda M/C that was "heavily influenced" by the brembo of that period. How heavily? Mark says the caps are interchangeable. What a coincidence... Please do not inform Loopframe neophyte Chris Mitchell that I plan on putting a honda part on my Loop. It would break his heart. David |
