Better brakes needs ASAP
I have a rat rod chopper with a husky fork and front rim setup. I need better brakes for it. Can I swap to a bigger rotor, different caliper? Will better lines, pads, and fluid do the trick? The brake son this thing blow and are gonna kill me

-steel braided brake lines- the lines won't flex when you squeeze or push the brake.
-big rotor- a larger surface area which will keep the rotor cooler longer
those two alone will make a fairly significant difference

Nothing will come up. Know why? Because this isnt a husky forum. If you had a front end off a sport bike, we could probably help you. Most of the people on here have never even seen a husky in real life.
