Subject: Front brake disc question / request... Sat Apr 04, 2009 6:46 pm
I want to get a set of dirt wheels for my X and will most likely end up running the stock front brake disc. I'm not concerned with having too much braking using the larger disc as much as I'm worried about damaging the disc on a stump or some rocks. With the 110/70 tire on the X, the disc is kinda protected but with the 80/100 on the R, I was thinking I might lose some of the protection. Atleast going to the 21 inch front wheel (and knobbies), I gain some height and width protection but I was just curious about the width aspect. I couldn't find a good pic of an R that shows how well the disc is "protected" by the tire. Can some take a pic of their R straight on by the disc to get idea of that it looks like ? Anyone know of a disc protector for the X ?

Before anyone posts the closed-up front shot of their R, maybe you can try here
On the index page, click on the icon (R or X) next to EXSOUND..
you should be able to see the front shot of both

Thanks, I could see what I wanted to see in those pics. And I found Yamaha already has a disc protector for the X.
