question on oversized brake rotors?

Post by klr650_ryder » Sat Sep 10, 2005 5:30 pm

Hello to all, I want to thank y'all in advance for any help with this. I am looking at getting an oversized brake rotor for my 05' KlR. I saw different kinds and types from wave type to one that looks like stock just bigger in diameter. I was just wandering what everybody else favors, and your opinions. By the way I use my KLR a lot. I have 16,037 miles on my 05' already and am getting 62 MPG with it thanks to my head modification I did to it. I am loving the Mileage now with the gas at over $3 a gallon. I also had a KLR sighting in Marlton NJ at church and Greentree roads last Thurs. the 8th in front of commerce bank. It was the army green color. If it was any of you let me know maybe we can hookup and ride somtime. Don 05' a19 NJ

Don, sorry I can't help you with the rotor but what kind of head modifications are you talking about ? klr650_ryder wrote:Hello to all, I want to thank y'all in advance for any help with this.

Don, I don't have any experience with the oversize brake rotor. I don't seem to need one. Last year I was able to lock up the rear wheel and chirp the front tire while fully loaded. For me the brakes work fine. I think if I was gonna try a larger rotor I'd get the one that I think Fred sells. If I recall correctly it's 320mm. Can you share with the list about the head mods you did. Pretty impressive mileage and mpg for an 05. What kind of riding and at what speeds are you getting those results? Thanks, and best, Jeff Saline ABC # 4412 South Dakota Airmarshal Airheads Beemer Club www.airheads.org The Beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota 75 R90/6, 03 KLR650, 79 R100RT

Sorry no Dyno charts were mad before the work. Because I don't have access to a Dyno meter. I wish i did it would help me with a lot of my paper and pencil figuring. which is a bunch of numbers and figure and formula. They suck. Thank god for a calculator. Don A19
