A couple of months back we set up dual-discs with our '10 Harley Dyna Street Bob making use of authentic Harley parts. Even though this project was an ample upgrade within the already intsalled single disc, the big boys thought we would go on it one step even further and build the best in front braking.

Having a set of Jaybrake's J-Six Ultra Six-Piston calipers ($799.90) we're certain that our motorcycle would certainly attain significant stopping ability. The more pistons a brake has, the better it works. Simply because more pistons across the rear top of the pad apply a much more consistent stress building higher degrees of high temperature dissipation. This cuts down momentum much faster and shortens stopping distances.

Along with Jaybrake , we're definitely on our way to being the king of front braking, but that wasn't enough. Understanding that we were going to locate the best performing rotors, we picked a pair of Lyndall Racing Brake's Phoenix Lug Drive ceramic discs ($1 ,098) that delivers an authentic technical enhancement within the stock installation. Lyndall's rotors come with a full-floating aluminum carrier/friction ring combo available in both 420 high carbon and a working gradient proprietary metal matrix composite. The boys chose the matrix rotors because of their benefits over steel. Metal matrix is actually a material that's built from the merging of two elements that handles more efficiently the stress of stopping over a single substance.

The main benefit of metal matrix rotors is high temperature dissipation. Less heat implies a lesser amount of friction, as soon as the binders are on, the more reduced heat produced from utilizing a composite keeps brakes from diminishing drastically. Another advantageous outcome of utilizing a metal matrix over steel is a decrease in weight of as much as 60 percent for each rotor. Because your wheel is a spinning mass, the less it weighs means the quicker acceleration and deceleration you will get.

Also, we picked a matching pair of Lyndall Racing Red Plus pads as opposed to the factory parts from Jaybrake. Why, you ask? The Lyndall offerings make use of what is called "transfer film technology." This means that the brake pads leave a film of friction substance over the rotor's braking area, so when the brakes are applied, the friction component is rubbing against itself thus giving enhanced results over the 2 different components included in most braking setups. A complication of the transfer film concept is that there is no brake particles to clean up.

We brought the Dyna into our secret bike port and replaced the braking systems ourselves to show precisely how simple it is to get the ultimate brake setup with a few bucks and just a couple of work hours.

01. We started by installing the Lyndall Rotors onto our Dyna's OEM front rim. We utilized a lot of thread-locking compound and stiffened all the bolts to factory requirements.

02. The boys mounted the new brake pads in the Jaybrake six-pistom calipers and installed them onto the fork legs of the motorcycle, snugging the mounting bolts up to stock features to check for any sort of clearance space problem.

03. With the pad-to-rotor clearance checking out within specification, we affixed the brake lines to the Jaybrake calipers and included more fluid to the master cylinder.

04. After the brand-new braking system was bled and examined for any sort of dripping fasteners or tubes, the boys stiffened almost everything up to spec based from the service guidebook.

05. The beefed-up braking system carried out much better than we expected. So much so that all of us had to adjust our biking style to the massive amount of stopping power we gained. Nevertheless it was worth it to get such confidence aspiring "sportbike-style" braking over a 700 pound motorbike.

Remember, no matter what your install could possibly be, it really is important to put on protective german motorcycle helmet to be sure we do not get serious injuries when any sort of accident arises.
