Re: Track bike
what sort of prehistoric tyre is that on the bike. throw an alpha 10 on it and she'll be even sweeter. single pot front calipers

Re: Track bike
I've got a set of bridgestone slicks to use on the track, the tyres in the pics came with the bike. Only paid £200 for it as a non running shed, cleaned the carbs out & it fired up straight away. £50 for the fairing & seat unit, £10 for Halfords satin black & its ready to go. Single pot calipers are easily up to the job, they dont exactly have to stop an R1.

Re: Track bike
Thats my usual aproach, followed by fairing repairs with tape & cable ties so maybe you have a point.
