Depending on the bike, I was thinking of using the existing rad fan, just hard wiring it with a relay and making some duct work off of that. The rotors are going to be way hotter than the rad fan exhaust. Great, now I'm gonna be up late thinking about this......

Re: FTI dual quad + Hohey big rotor

So I rode a few times with this setup now, and I ******* love the hand brake with the big rotor and full pad wear Its easier to modulate and my no throttle hand SS tricks got longer and smoother...Also has more bite/lock up power....

I am not feeling the foot brake thou, its the same as before too touchy for my liking...And now even worse! I barely touch the thing and it just slams down on coasters and sit downs...The only thing I like about it is for no hander stand ups...

So I decided to try that GSXR caliper, and made my own custom mount for it last night...Gonna try it out on the weekend....

Check it out

Thanks but you need more then some fab skills to make that, my CNC software package cost $20,000 not including training, and my CNC machine cost $250,000....Its a pain in the *** for me to mill metals thou, as its actually a CNC router....Basically the same as a mill just much much larger and set up to cut sheets of wood or plastic...
