Big Brake?

I do a lot of street riding and was wanting to improve on my front braking. I was looking into a bigger brake but havent had too much luck finding them for my 94. Any suggestions?

Are you running knobs on the street, or D/P tires? Not a lot of options other than going to a SuperMoto set up. Problem with that route is you end up putting more disc real estate at risk when you leave the road. Eventually you get to the compromise loss point between balancing for dirt or street. You may end up deciding that a purpose built DP bike may better suit your riding style. (Or do like I did and just buy more bikes? lol)

I have never noticed a lack of braking on the street with mine. It will easily put me over the bars if I'm not careful and that is on knobbies. Maybe it is time for you to install new pads/rotor and bleed the system?
