Front brake setup for 1989 200
Posted: 04:23 am May 07 2012
Hi all,
My mate rides an old 1989 KDX200 around on my farm.....with no front brakes. Now when I say no front brakes, I mean NOTHING, it is all gone. So I want to help him out for his birthday and set him up with something, it has to be cheap as the bike is a piece of junk anyway.
So first off, where would I source a new or second hand front brake rotor? Would one from another old model KX or the likes fit?
Would something like this work at all if I got a new disk and made up an adaptor for the caliper?:

Any other thoughts or suggestions? Again, it must be CHEAP.
