Oh well, Scarfey. Xtians is one of the best swaps available so have a look at his pics while I go back to just dreaming of having stoppers like that.

Actually, I've been looking at my 4 spot Tokico calipers on my trailer and maybe trying to track down some fork sliders off an RH. Hmmmmmmm............................

Have a look at my bike on members bikes.
I have the R1/XJR blue spots on mine...makes all the difference.
Still have the standard discs just spaced out slightly to line up with the calipers.

BRAKE UPGRADE

Has any one carried out a brake upgrade /conversion on their XS. 

I was thinking of larger diameter discs and a stepped out (and maybe two spot) caliper.
