Yeah, plus keep in mind that there are virtually NO aftermarket parts for the XR. It came with small front discs and rear drums. As such, to upgrade the brakes, I had to make customer brackets to fit universal calipers, then custom hats to fit universal rotors, and after all that's done, the stock MC is WAY off. So, by using dual MCs I get all the benifts RJ mentioned. Also, I have to independent systems, so if one should fail, I still have a 50% chance of being able to slow down.
Plus, it's a surprisingly simple mod to the stock brake box, so why not :dunno: ?
