Title: Brake Caliper adapters? Post by: gwumpkus on January 01, 2017, 08:04:51 AM Does anyone make these adapters anymore, to get 65mm calipers onto 40mm mounts on the forks? i'm doing a dual brake conversion for an early monster, i've got the older forks, and a pair of newer 65mm calipers (the older 40mm calipers seem non-existent..)
of course, if someone has a RIGHT side caliper in 40mm mount just lying there, i'll be happy to take it off your hands..:) thanx for any help/advice, just getting back to the moto scene, with this carby Monster! :) cheers!

You could sell on the 65's and look for braided lines if you don't have any or even splash out on a radial master cylinder. A radial master cylinder is not necessary but gives a little more leverage and a lot more feel. Some sintered pads from Ferodo or EBC will give some more bite.
I had a late model radial 999 m/c, Ferodo sintered pads, braided lines and the original Brembos on my old M900 and it had better brakes than some late model Japanese bikes. Title: Re: Post by: greenohawk69 on January 05, 2017, 10:25:58 AM Apologize for the late response. I do have a R fork.
