Hi all,

just got a new bike and need some help from you. The bike is a Honda XR 250 Tornado (2003) and i am already planning my mods here.

First of all, i need to change the rear brake (drum) to disk. However i dont know what is the kit people use to change it.

I know there are several different types, most are Honda OEM's rear brake system. However i dont know what's the specs I also know that there is one of these Kits from honda that doesnt need the rear hub to be modified, but other ones do, like after-market brembo brakes for example.

All i know is that is the same brake system conversion used for other Honda bikes that have drum brakes. Like CR's, CRF's and so on. If anyone can help me out, please do.

please check the thread at thumpertalk

were any of you out on the mayday run yesterday? I attempted it, but binned it on the A25 so had to ride to a friends house in westerham and leave the bike there. Luckily I was following my mates in a car so we all squeezed in and made it to Hastings after all. Anyone else got any May Day stories? Was an awesome day out!

Why do people cover their number plates when everyone can see them on the road???

because the internet is full of idiots who could clone the plates and go get me lads of fines? more people are likely to see the pic on the net than on the bike whizzing past at naughty speeds ....

 

[Bungral]

Ok but they could just walk outside their house and pick a number plate of any parked vehicle rather than search the net?

not when your looking for a bike to match yours ....

and id rather not flaunt my reg number around for any person to clone. we had a landrover scrapped when it was on our drive .... because someone cloned it then scrapped the clone the dvla letter was like WTF
