My 2011Busa

[Jake whitebird]

Like I said, real facts on stating the clamping force on 1 rotor wont stop the bike

Bolt on extensions, exhaust tips, one disc up front . . . nice.

is common sense common these days?

 

[RedBull]

Very nice !

Plasti dip the wheels. Lowered and stretched 8 over stock.

Busa look bad ass!! I plastidipped last week.

I cant believe I have to post this... but this settles the debate of one rotor versus 2.... and this was done on a lighter weight 1K gixxer..... hopefully this will save some poor lost souls life........ https://www.superstreetbike.com/rem...t-affect-stopping-distance-mythbusters#page-2

Now I know I just gotta grab the brake 6 feet sooner

 

[Jake whitebird]

But yes, that’s the real world data we were looking for. But 200 300 400hp bikes..... turboed launch controls high boost. Just ride safe 1 rotor or 2

6ft doing 30mph. 18ft doing 65mph. Could only imagine the difference at 130mph.

u want as much stopping power as u can reasonably get... we shouldnt be negatively impacting our street machines braking performance... and if u only have ONE caliper up front.. u better pray to god nothing happens with that one caliper OR line going to the caliper....

 

[ali123]

It made a big difference.

just note that if a heavy enough spring is used... the stock shock cannot control it... u risk turning the "shock" into a pogo-stick..... just trying to help.

 

[ali123]

a shock should be revalved to riders weight/riding style when changing springs under most cases...

 

[Jake whitebird]

Sorry buddy, but stopped praying to that guy awhile back. One primary line regardless of 1 caliper or 12.... if she goes she goes

wow... uve never had a caliper get stuck/ not function.. get oil all over rotor from a blown fork seal...

Think there could be some good debate here. With good brakes, calipers, tire and pads. There is a point there the tire is going to lock up. Can you get there with one caliper? But it works twice as hard and are you going to get brake fade twice as fast ?
Racers spend thousands trying to save weight and never once saw one caliper on a gp bike.
When I first thought about it I wanted to reply 1x2=2 twice as good as one. The brakes on the busa suck it’s a lot of weight to slow down. I would never go to one.

But comparing a gp bike to a street bike isn’t apples to apples is it? But yes I agree the debate is there. But to criticize 1 rotor, is like judging choice of turbo or tuner

Why "stop" at the front wheel, when for only $25 you can also get rid of all that weight in the back by
using a rear caliper delete spacer . . .

I think your questioning the function and performance of something I think looking at perfesionals. Is a fair comparision. If their is a lighter more efficient way they would do it $$ is not a barrier.

Bad tuners blow things up all the time. Good tuners don’t not sure I understand the comparision.

Lol okay okay I get it. Shoulda left it on.... and frank I do have that piece from Schmitz

Don't forget to do the chain guard delete mod, it looks soo sweet. Lol
