Thanks

El Burro, you need to use identical arms I would think, see the link below, its quite a good guide, you need to take your time and don't take any metal off anything unless you are sure of your measurements, I had to take a couple of mil off the offside lower mount (on the leg that is getting the new disc), get some shimming washers for the upper mounts so that you can make fine adjustments, I found it very straightforward (but I was apprentice trained many moons ago!), also take care with the threads in the sliders, the alloy is very soft and may be corroded as well, don't over tighten anything, the callipers are the same but you need a different master cylinder, the piston in the standard CB750 master cylinder is too small in diameter, David Silvers sells one for the early Gold Wing which is ideal (although I ended up using a Fireblade unit because it fits under the fairing better having a remote reservoir), I rode the bike on my driveway recently, only at 10mph, gave the front brake a hefty tug because I'd heard that the brakes are still rubbish even with twin discs, I nearly went over the bloody handlebars!!!, what they will be like at higher speeds I have yet to find out, good luck with your conversion, cheers Mark.

El__burro:
Would this line splitter fit my k2 without much work.
I am trying to find a good setting for a dual disk system.

Thanks
El__burro

Bryanj:
Looks like it would fit but no provision for brake light switch, also the is only one mounting bolt on a K2 so you may need to fabricate an adaptor bracket

El__burro:
Thanks,  i have the light switch on the lever itself.
Size wise are we ok?
