Hey Joe,

No, really. You -should- be able to lock up your fronts on corner entry with stock brakes and good pads. Yes, even with hot sticky Hoosiers. No, I'm not kidding. And yes, even with a 19mm master, which is what I've got.

Again, look at those brakes...

Joe,

Hee Hee...sorry on the rivets....Bought the steelies and my 17" REVO's for a reason...lol

BUT as to being on topic my ride was (before disassembly) braking quite well even on the track with the 19mm MC, SS lines some racing pads and the zimmers cross drilled rotors....

I do seem to remember there being some thing said some where about the 19mm though, easy/cheap and it WILL help....

Josh
