I thought most conversions involved a larger disc and potentially a bigger caliper to go with it - or are you saying the master cylinder on your average dirt bike isn't enough for the street?

A master on a dirtbike is more than enough for the street, but might come up a bit short during heavy use at a road or supermoto track. I have no problems doing stoppies or losing front grip on my yz with street tires on it.

I linked this in another thread a while ago, but it really belongs here. Video Coverage of all 6 rounds of the AMA supermoto championship last year, and lots of other good videos.

I always see you guys talking DRZ prices in here, so I decided to see what my area is like. This seems like a pretty solid deal, and somebody in here is always looking. It's not my bike, nor do I know the owner.

Can I have your head to put on our wall of spectacular failures? Thats a good one. Should the PO be held responsible? Tough to say, I wouldn't be inclined to hold him responsible for something that I should have checked when I bought the bike. Did he say that he just did a valve adjustment? If so, then I would probably want to have a word with him since he botched it. But why did you go out and ride it on the highway with classic and serious valve adjustment symptoms?

Are you the one on there complaining about how no one posts? I posted something just for you.
