      Welcome to xBhp & pls consider posting an intro about yourself & your ride in the "Who Are You" section.

      But if your Dazzler is under warranty, pls refrain from doing such mods.

      You need to find that out by yourself

      The one posted in the first pic, you'll not be able to find out the disc pads quite common here. So you need to get it imported from Singapore everytime.

      Depends on two important parts...
      1. Front fork
      2. Suspension (esp the bottoms)
      There's much more to say on both of the above than what is penned down above.

      If done & used well, nothing is dangerous

        i Have done the above mod on my R15. And let me tell you this. Its a purely performance mod. It eats up the brake pads quickly, but does give you more than normal braking feedback, and response. For normal riding the braking on the dazzler is more than adequate ( which means hauling it down from insane speeds as well ).

        Dangerous? Yes it is, If the disc warps or anything, you can be sent flying over the handelbars into oblivion... Any incorrect process during installation can be disastrous. Has to be done extremely carefully and with precision.

                Cool
                Could you please post a few pics and maybe the process that you had to get done for the upgrade.
                Also the cost that you incurred for the same.
                Thanks.

                P.S. I have an R15 too and was looking for an upgrade but the brake kit in the daytona range is too costly.
