The pair he had for me 5 years ago ? :LolLolLolLol:

Don't exaggerate Ash.
It was only 2 or 3 years ago. ........ :2funny:
Or the last time you made it north of Leicestershire :yahoo_silent:

....like Funk said, length can be an issue on front ..........f.ex if you want to use a gyro/Potts Mod:
--- Quote from: brettypeeps on October 13, 2013, 09:57 PM ---You will not be able to Pots mod a 901 on the front and spin the bars on a DP. Not sure about the TRM but my guess is the same hence why people use an 880 on the front :daumenhoch:

Yep, £300 of the £450 quids worth of brakes I have sat on a shelf in the man cave were all destined for the MRD at some point ;D
Someone should do a spread sheet or something with bikes in one column and brakes that fit in another........

Anyone know what brakes fit an '83 Laserlite (with a flat brake bridge)? I think they came with MX1000s as standard but think I've also seen them with 890s, so I'm guessing that 900s would be ok as well. Thanks in advance.

...can't see the brake bridge, but should be a flat one, as it doesn't have ARX forks, which one with round brake bridge would have .....so should work. Besides, if you've already seen 890s, how could 900s not work then? :daumenhoch:
