320mm disk to XT660r
I was wondering if anyone has ever fitted 320mm disk to XT660R?
I would just need front break caliper extenders and a 320mm disk from XT660X? Who makes the caliper extenders or where could I get those? Look at this picture: http://www.the-larkins.com/Picture%20124.jpg I would need something like that. I also wonder about the brake lines, if they would be too tight after this mod? I understand that the X version is a supermoto and better breaking performance is needed, but why the R version doesn't need better performance? Is there something that speaks against fitting a larger front disk to an enduro bike? |

Someone who has access to both bikes (X and R), could confirm that the X front disk matches the R front wheel.

Also, the grip off road isn't anything like the tarmac, so I couldn't really see the point in more stopping power - you'll just slide along!! Maybe that's why? That said, it would look monsterous on a road going R...... .

Thanks Gas_Up_Lets_Go, a good point there. Bigger disk is more close to the ground. I think i'll try the wavy disk with different brakepads first.
Also, making the front end stiffer (wilbers springs +15w oil) helped a bit already. |
