Jim-Bob,

I bought a pair of Monster Mags and sold the front on (see below).

I had already installed a mag front (thanks to Nat and Rich of Louigi-Moto)

Anyway, the ally OEM rear you mention weighs about five pounds more (about a pound less than the standard Brembo 3 spoke - from memory) the mag rear I have. The rear is a big 25mm axle compared to the 17mm of the 888. I will be making the conversion to the big axle but it requires a load of hardware from a monster or an ST to make it possible, an that's assuming you have a standard rear brake; I don't so I'll be fabricating that up from stock.

Also, the cush drive will possibly need machining, depending which combination of parts you end up with.

Rgds, Rob
