Hey everyone, Merry Christmas! It's finally time to start REALLY working on the baby. I have a 2nd bike now and I have plenty of time to make my 2003 America RAD! Drove her out of the showroom in 03 and I've been stuck in the saddle ever since.

My plan is to start with the brakes. Then the clutch. Then maybe a new carb and for sure after that I'll be upgrading the engine. I was thinking abouot the Wiseco. There was a dude years back who upgraded his engine and made a video of every single step. I think I want to do the same exact thing, and hopefully track down that vid. So you guys will be hearing a LOT from me.

Right now I'm shopping for rotors. I found a pair for 130 both rotors

But I'm just not sure if they will wind up sucking or not. Anyone ever use these? Trying to save some cash right now but I don't want to waste money on bad parts.

Not familiar with those but there used to be rotors available that full floating that won't break the bank. See what Eddy has available, he won't sell you crap.

I got EBC floating rotors from Fast eddy.
$200/each, but there's nothing like them!


The ride may be fun, but in the Great Scheme of things, it really is about the destination! John 3:16
