fierce brake

[spooky]

I have a little 125cc two stroke (gilera) with a really good brembo disc on the front, in fact it is too good, is there any way to make it a little less fierce ? it can lock up very easily on damp surfaces and at the minute that`s all we have up here, i haven`t had a chance to try it on dry roads yet,

Aye Rufus,

Organic pads rather than metallic pads, or one of each in the caliper. This is a suggestion, not a recommendation!

When you go scratching with it, you may wish to revert to metallic pads both sides?

Good health, Bill

Spooks... I can't believe you've overlooked the obvious. Just spray plenty of WD40 onto the disc face. Defo be less fierce then 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Ps... I AM JOKING

Those will be the blue, diamond-shaped pads - tricky to get hold of, but strong performance and a great feel at the lever guaranteed!

whats your tyre like? it may be that the wheel locks easily because the tyre lacks grip? try fitting something stickier to it if its an old tyre.
