Rob, I don't know if it is worth all the mucking around with changing geometry etc to get a lighter front end.

However, I do agree with you re the jag calipers. I have heard of some folks using the Nissen Alloy calipers for two reasons. One to reduce weight and the other for brake balance. They have a slightly smaller piston.

Some folks feel the big Jag 4 pot front calipers overpower the back. By that I'm saying they feel they don't have enough back brake. I have driven an RMC with exactly this problem and it is quite a weird feeling.

This is certainly on my wish list at some later stage.

Cheers
