Let's just start off by saying this is NOT a "how do I convert my crap drum brakes to disc brakes" thread.

Anyways, I picked up a full front brake setup from a 2004 Blaster for $150 last night in Scranton, PA.
I've been looking online and this brake setup is expensive, even with going the KOR route, but I'm a cheapskate, and went this route.

Anyways, I also bought a full Galfer Braided Line Kit w/distribution block for $60, new front rotors (the ones I got are completely out of spec.) for another $60, and a new master cylinder for another $15.

Grand Total for everything minus the covers: $285.

Now, has anyone ran ASV levers or some other form of "unbreakable" levers?
I had a set on my old YZ250 and they were amazing.

I'm running a set of ProTaper Seven-Eighth's bars with the CR-High bend (yes, I know, it's an MX bar).

Yep, I've run ASV levers. Good to go.
 
Sweet deal. It appears they're back-ordered (go figure).
Last time I went to order levers from ASV it took them almost THREE MONTHS for them to make them for the YZ.


Yes. I poop enough. I don't need to poop when I try to stop now.
With the drums it was always am i going to stop in time:eek:
