Double Disc Plate For Cub motorbikes...


Usually most cub motorbikes comes with just single disc plate for the front braking system.... Or even just a drum brake system... well... my bike started with just drum brake system... then add single disc... and make double disc brake system once i've got the idea and budjet to custom made them...

the cost is kinda high to make this double disc brake system... and high level of creativity in customizing stuffs... :P.... i've collected my money and all these are made by myself and thanks to some ideas i got from the net... :)...

It starts with making the hub to attach on to the front rim.... procedures shown in the pictures bellow... btw... the hub is taken from a Yamaha Lagenda or LC135, or 125z... the ones that uses spoke rims...


measurements to make the hub... forgot the thickness of it...



Cut off the part needed from the hub as in the picture...



the part been cut off...



cut off until it is as the pic on the left.. then send to the machinery shop to lathe as in the pic on the right... follow the measurement in the first pic...


the rest of items u need... disc plate, fork(the same as the right fork), brake caliper, brake hose...


lathe the rims as well as in the left picture... the right picture is with the hub on it...


both disc plate attached onto the rims...


the rims with the discs fixed on the fork... btw... the bracket for the left caliper need to be custom made as well...


and the brake lines need to be divided into two... a custom made brake nut is made... well... no idea how to explain but its a normal nut that have been drilled for two hose... the brake fluid will go to both of the brake calipers....


One last thing to do is fill in the brake fluid and "bleeding" the lines... takes damn long to bleed the lines since these's two calipers... takes a few hours for it to be completely ready...

Braking power is damn strong after installing the double brake system... need some time to get used to it... and i've got in an accident once just because the braking is too strong... good like trying for those interested in doing this... :)....
