Looking at Ken's thread on disc brake material, I was doing a little digging in such topic and came across this on the  .net Honda forum http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=109502.0  :o :o :o ;D

It's about the thirteenth post in the thread, quite an adventure by all accounts  :)

Oddjob:

Looks very nice but Jesús is it expensive.

Like the look of the bare alloy one better.

Cappodimonte:
The original braking is stainless steel disc up front which can be described as pull lever on Sunday and stop on Monday, drum rear which was adequate. My concern would be in changing to a rear disc set up is that the rear would be more efficient than the front leading to tail happy slithering all over the road retardation. If going for this expensive option I would expect a change of front disc of equal efficiency to complement the rear one
Unless of course hairy braking is your forte!

Bryanj:
You say the braking is apply Sunday stop Monday but you obiously never road tested a Ural (Dneiper) where road tests of the day quoted stopping distance from 30 as the horizon and from 60, if you got it to go that fast as 14 miles past the horizon, yet they made efficiency on mot
