View Full Version : Front Disc
Anyone got a front disc that they wish to part with. I have to balast my lightweight.........ish bike up a couple of Kg, so a caliper and disc will be just on the mark of minimum weight.
I have the caliper just the disc I require.

given rotational mass, unsprung weight blah blah blah wouldnt you be better adding ballast low in the centre? Heavy belly pan, something like that?

Kev the one I have on at present is from a (TZ 250). But anything would do its a race bike so I'm not after aesthetics.
Ironic thing is I gave one to my brother to put on a 600ss to convert to twin discs on a bike he was selling last month.
That small amount of mass Paul will make 3/5th's of f@<>all difference and just provide a little bit more Woah for Pembrey hairpin. :D

Think I have one lying around you can have Phil.
Thanks Chaz I'll pm you later to sort the logistics. Paul my bike was 152.5 at snett, so it will work out just right for me.

Phil; if you need a disc I have a solocorse one spare ( its a bit warped). You could run it with no caliper and achieve the required weight then.

Cheers Mike, at snet I used a caliper and no disc and a spare chain under the seat. But I'll take Chaz up on his offer.
