I was going to link on to Bubbs post, But he's closed it, so I've started another one in a similar vain.
I have aquired a pair of Leading link forks for my 1989 R80 Mono (ex RT) outfit. A very nice set from Wasp.
The LLs came with a pair of K1100 four pot callipers and I'm wondering two things.
1, My R80 has a single front disc and standard Brembo calliper. If I where to fit the twin 4 potters, What size master cylinder would be recomended?
2, I also have a pair (separate from the fitted single) of the Brembo callipers. Which is the correct size master cylinder for these and would the 4 potters be that much better?
Machining the 4 potters:
My wife Jill has a 4 pot caliper on her 100GS, which came on the bike. I know it has been machined to get it in the correct line and comparing it to the new ones it looks like (as I haven't taken it off to measure it propperly) it's been machined from 15mm to 11mm. Is it the same for the RT as the GS?
