Doug Morrisun from Oregon came up with this idea: the lightest, largest brakes that would fit on the stock struts.

To keep weight down, his idea was to use a solid rotor. Non-vented. He says that for a light 1200 street vehicle there is no fading.

Rotors are only $20 each new

Remove the 1200 disks from the hub, then put the hub back on

Open in new window


Slip the new disks over the hub

Open in new window


you will need slightly longer wheels studs, from a wreckers or buy them new
