brake ideas???

[tyephoon]

so today i was messing with my brakes. they are the double piston kind that they put on karts and buggies... never been really impressed with the conversion... i've always wanted to upgrade to a stock hydrolic setup, but i have a 98 frame that didn't come with the tabs or anything... just wondering what some of you have done to get around this, or if there is and easy way to convert to the hydrolic setup, and what kinds of bikes can you use parts from? if anyone has a brake setup for the back they want to get rid of holla at a playa!! btw i have parts for the dual piston setup: master, new pads , and steel braided lines. let me know if you need anything

yea u can .. i have a ghetto hydro set up on mine ,a raptor 660 caliper and a master cylinder from a street bike lol.. i just made a mount so i could mount the cailper to the axle carer, and welded a tab to the stock brake lever and it works great ..

[BlasterKing]

yup but if you arent smart and cant do that and you try you can end up messing it all up so yea I got the kart conversion and it works better than stock and thats all I need

You can get the carrier, brake caliper, right side foot peg and the master off of a 03 or new bike. All you have to do is make a tab for the master to bolt to. Everything else bolts right up. I just did it on my wifes bike. I found all the parts on here for $80.

I'm not doubting your brakes suck, but what I had on my kart growing up was the worst of all brakes- scrub brakes. They were barely a step up from Flintstone brakes.

Scrubs are the shiz!!! Oldskool right there. Scrubs make riding in those old solid frame-5 horse-lawnmower-powered deathtraps fun! Accidents a-plenty! It was soooo much fun to watch your buddies almost become paraplegics. After we ran out of gas, we would play a couple games of jarts!!!
