F2 front brake upgrade??

(1/2) > >>

Hi all,

My Cafe Yoshimura Four gets used often and enthusiastically...  ;D

The only problem being the bike is now quicker than its brakes? The rear brake is of course a necessity rather than a once-a-year MOT prod, I am looking at upgrading the front brake to an acceptable standard.

I saw MANY years ago a Four with twin discs - can't remember too much info but it had two left-hand forklegs with the relevent calipers etc running to an extra bolt-on disc on the righthand of the hub - all simple enough but this inverts your mudguard mounts, meaning welding & rechroming of my very shiny front mudguard... ::)

I have already upgraded to a braided line, the brake light switch being built into to the upgraded master cylinder, the disc has also been lightened to try to get some heat into what is basically a car disc, both size & thickness... :D

Im thinking of making a new swing-mount for a new twin-pot front caliper, has anyone done this already?  :)

Bryanj:
If this is the 400 F2 the only real way to get twin discs on it is fit the front end fron a CB400 twin, or you have to use two of the sliders with caliper brackets have one in front and one behind plus mod the mudguard as you said

Anyone have any pics of the twin slider mod?

Yay!







Brembo caliper conversion!
