I've already Posted a question in the Suspension section for upgrades and have had some very nice recommendations
Thank You !
Now for the brakes, this is a 74' CB 750 K7 I just purchased.
I'm thinking about going this route for it was same approach I did for my 74' CB 750 K4.
On my 750, I drilled and thinned the stock rotor, Upgraded to EBC semi-metallic brake pads, Stainless Steel brake lines all the way to the brake caliper, and changed the M/C from a 14mm stock piston bore to 1/2" ( 12.7mm ). I also have a 11mm piston M/C for even a bigger squeeze at the rotor if needed. Braking performance has been greatly increased !
What would you think about using this same set-up on my 450 ?
Does anyone know what the piston bore diameter is on the stock M/C of my 450 ?
Another change I have used in the Past on a 72' Kawasaki H2 i did several years ago, was to use a dual piston caliper of a Kawasaki EX500 and mount that to a bracket a Forum member made. Big difference too in braking as well.
Has anyone used a different brake caliper with a fabricated mount on their 450 with good results ? If so, would love to hear about that too.
