Yea, my mate with a Commando has a Lockheed master on his and not sure what caliper he had but it may have been one of the early Brembo ones I can't remember.

Sounds easy in theory and I don't know what I was thinking trying to pull a stoppie on the Mirage, maybe just to prove a point to myself? The standard brakes are poweful but lack any real feedback on what the front's doing. First I knew I heard the front tyre squealing!

Iit must be an age thing and probably can't help with the calipers out front on the forks which was all the rage back in the day but I can't help wondering if there would be some improvement by reversing the fork legs so that the calipers are behind as the factory eventually did along with most other bike manufacturers as well and still do.
