@Atul how much did installing the Gladiator front end and the disk setup cost you? I could see the sticker on the fork assy and it showed Rs5450 well just give me ball park figure please cos I really wanna install this setup on my RX. And was it hard getting the front wheel of the RXZ cos I am was thinking i'll use a first gen Pulsar wheel but if can get a YAMAHA wheel there is nothing like it.."I set out running but I take my time, a friend of the devil is a friend of mine.

@yamaha trooper - my friend did an install of the gladiator front forks, for the disc brake on his RX100. He used the alloy wheel from the gladiator only. Alternatively you could use the disc brake hub ( spoke type) and rim from the old gladiator. According to him, its a direct fit to the RX handle T

+1 to that. Stock drum brakes are more than enough. Unless you have done some heavy duty modifications like converting it to 165cc and stuff.Originally posted by vas View Postmaga, i aint an ReXy guy, but still would suggest you not to put the discs and spoil the stock looks of the bike.
