thats for my ducati 600ss |
why will twin disc help you Dom..i used a single all last year and have started with a single again this year.? What issues do you have.? .... i still say single disc is all you need and that a twin is OTT imho of course good to meet ya Phil |
in race one i lost the frount breaks with 2 laps to go but they got there bite back going down the back stright but lost them again. changed the fluid for race two but had lost the confidence in them so wasnt breaking as hard. talked to kev about it and he said that the the disk could have been rubing but iv been looking at it real hard this afternoon and cant see any thing wrong with it. iv also go the standard disk in i dont know if they hold the heat in and expand to much. it may just be my riding style as i trail the breaks into the corner alot i tryed to stop doing that in the second race and just brake hard before the corner so therefore wasnt on the breaks as much.

I'd say a change of pads is all you need Dom, try a pair of Performance Friction pads rather than the EBC HH you have at the moment?? If not, discs should fit I think, you'll want a 40mm caliper (hole centres) rather than 65 (i think Phoenix may have a spare she might sell) and a 748 / 916 master cylinder, but make sure you've got the mounting points for the caliper on the fork leg, not all bikes have! |
I think I will stick with a single disc setup as well, I didn't try to brake hard this weekend, don't know why... I need some track time to make my brake survey :lol: |
Those calipers won't fit your forks as they are 65mm mount and your forks take 40mm calipers (the distance between the bolt holes to mount calipers to the forks) I've got a 916 master cylinder with resevoir for sale - you'll need one of these to push more fluid down the lines if you switch to twin calipers. All you'll need then is another caliper, another brake line and a twin-line banjo bolt for the master cylinder. |
Hi, I have single disk on my monster. The only place on the circuit where I was "concerned" with performance was approaching that horrible bus stop chicane. Maybe I wasn't pulling hard enough?! but for sure it wasn't stopping. Maybe I'm just too heavy - specially coming down hill:lol: cheers Franco PS I did notice Geoff Spencer runs two disk setup and it doesn't seem to be doing him any harm. |
620's are Double Disc standard though arn't they? I only ran a single disc and it was doing me alright, maybe you should stick with altering you're riding style Dom? You went a hell of a lot quicker in the second race! |
COS HE HAD NO BrAkEs:lol::lol::lol: |
