Hi

More unusual is the twin disks. Most just had a single disk.

All the best

I got one in Marlboro colours, I have never sen an NS with dual disk, my forks don't even have a second caliper mount I don't think..

That one looks pretty neat, got any plans for it or just a run-around?

-Come to think of it, that front mudguard isn't stock either.-

The twin disks is very odd I've not seen an nsr with that before, any idea if that is how the bike was or if it's been modified?

Hi

Think it was standard on a small number (maybe for certain markets, maybe for a high spec version), although that mudguard doesn't look original.

All the best

I've never seen an NS or NSR with such a front brake system(mind you, I've never seen another NS in reality), but I wouldn't mind it. The mudguard seems to be copied of something bigger, once saw a BIG touring Suzuki with something similar. If you've had it running, any problems? Seen how much seat converters are for them?

Found another example so I guess there was a few ns's with twin discs.

The front mud guard is different however.

I wonder if there were any nsr's with twin discs.. because I would love to do that conversion to my bike Wink I'd try taking suspension/wheel/brakes from another bike but I can't find another bike with the same size front wheel..

How big is the front wheel? I assume from you saying that it's not 17"? If it's 16" then older Hornet 600's had a 16" front and twin discs I think.

Sorry it is a 17", I meant the same tyre size.. different to a wheel size I know.

It has a 100/80 - 17 52 T Front. I'm wary of using a different sort of sized tyre because that would change the handling wouldn't it?
