      In either case for a cheap front disc brake, one could purchase RHS leg of shock and flip its direction, hence fit it onto the left side with disc.

      IMHO, fronts brakes for Pulsars are already good enough and I donot think one needs them, Instead focus on improving braking SKILLS.

          think again bro if we reverce rhs shocker place where caliper tied will came in front side than how u mount your disk and i want double disk for stopies and it looks different having dual disk in front they add boldness to bike

            A picture could explain better than a 1000 words, I could'nt find a high resolution image to show this, have a look at the picture below, the bike is of a fellow bhpian only:


            Thanks.

                bah! all this talk about a twin front disc setup... i didn't do it coz i feel the front brakes are kinda sufficient.

                and flipping over the RHS fork for a twin setup looks plain flippin' ugly.

                      Good work there, Xionite! The finish is good. How 're dealing with the 'air-cooling' issue? Does the bike heat up pretty soon?
                      I 've always hated the rear mud-guard/fender. However, taking it off is a bad idea during the rains! You have done it well by plonking in a P135's. My 2-cents: paint it black.
                      Well, turn signals 're absolutely neccessary. Try fixing next to the brake light. Peace!

                          I just checked this thread.

                          The mod is not bad at all.
                          Can I suggest you few things?

                          Paint the middle panel [under rider seat] black as to take it away from view. Like the new orange P220s. This will separate the tail from the front part. And will give it a more modern look. If you look,the superbikes don't have that middle panel at all.

                          You can also remove the rear grab rails for a very sharp tail.

                          Last but not least, you can put a mono shock rear suspension to complete a sportsbike look.

                          Cheers!

                            don't ride it for for than 30/35kms at a stretch...
                            haven't faced any issues so far.

                            have planned a "re-paintjob" after the monsoon.

                            da ladies don't like that.

                            planning on putting on the "new" R15 rear end.

                            - i have my eyes on the rear end of the upcoming R15...
                            . (plan on a transplant as soon as new parts are available.)

                            - FZ rear suspension

                            - Repaint the bike (Lime Green again)

                            - want to try an underseat exhaust once i finish the R15 rear end mod.

                            - one mod i want to try is the CBR swingarm and rear wheel too.
                            . a 160 section rear tyre on a P18O. (in my dreams. )

                            .
                            thanks for the input.

                                @Xionite:Exactly! Thats the way to go.

                                Also just to be extra picky, if the bottom panel of the fairing is at lower 2/3 rds height of the wheel it will be just perfect! The default lower end of the P180 is like a streetbike. It ends quite higher than the ground.

                                Basically lowering the fairing height. Might look like the new ZX10R!!

                                Cheers!
