Topic: Dual front disc conversion parts on ebay

[mrblasty]

Found this on ebay and was thinking about biding but it looks like the caliper is the left side. can someone with knowledge about these parts tell me if they are correct?

Hey! I'm tracking it too! Don't you dare to bid on it!

I guess it should be the same. You just have to disassemble the caliper and install it reversed.

The caliper will fit either side by flippin the swinging brace around.  Do you get the master cylinder too?  I see the cap there, but no m-cylinder.  What about the speedo drive conversion for the right-side disc? Are those bolts the longer ones needed to mount the extra disc?  You're gonna need a brake line splitter to go to the extra caliper too.  The "kit" is a good start, but it's really not "complete". I also don't see the adjuster screw and spring...ask the seller about these other required parts.  When installiing the second caliper, there may be some required shims or other mods to get the caliper to track parallel to the rotor.

Well thwere's still a fair bit of work required before that pile of parts becomes a bolt on "kit", but I guess you guys know that? Still, for 10 bucks, I suppose you can't go wrong? I was gonna put a dual disc kit on Ebay, but considering the braided lines alone cost me over 100 bucks, I don't think I'll get too many bids, ha ha! If you do decide to convert yours to dual discs, try to find an F2 MC, they work great! Cheers, Terry.

That looks like a 500/550 caliper, that's what you're looking for?

               I'm thinking that there's a thread somewhere on this site that details the conversion and
        tells how to convert a standard caliper to be used for the other side (swapping the bleed screw
        setup and the brake line hole). And like Steve mentioned about flipping the bracket over. I'm
        also considering this setup. Good luck and later on, Bill

I'm out of the running fellers, good luck.

I have a few bolt on kits. that are complete.

You need
1. the long bolts - Bolt head must go on the speedo drive side.
2. 550 or 500 speedo drive - This is needed as there is not enough width for the O.E. 750 speedo drive.
3. front brake rotor
4. front brake caliper
5. All of the mounting hardware for the front caliper - swingarm, etc
6. A good assortment of shims and washers.

When setting these up you have to be careful as to how it is aligned to the rotor as IT WILL BIND  And flip your ass on the ground while your bike skids over you. 

When you get one of these set ups first installed, I recommend about 1/2 hour of parking lot stopping to make sure you got that bugger just right.

how much for the bolt on kits el cheapo ?

[ElCheapo]

Blasty wait I am putting together a full kit with vented rotors!!!!!

[Jinxracing]

Cheapo, not to be a dick, but shouldn't your rotors be described as "cross-drilled" and not "vented"?
