It seems that other than another stock rotor the only other replacement is a Colorado Norton Works set up. Any one know of another source for a floating rotor?

worntorn said:Slightly off topic, but as bad as the stock setup is for the front, it is just dandy on the rear. Adding lots pressure is easy with the foot and the rear wheel is lightly loaded when the front brake is doing its job. Add in compression braking and some care has to be taken not to lock the rear wheel with the standard setup. Even the most modern Sportbikes use a fairly small single sided rear brake, not a lot different than the MK3 Commando
So I wonder why CNW makes that very powerful looking MK3 rear brake upgrade kit? It would definitely add bling factor, but a stronger rear brake on the MK3 could actually be a bit of a bad thing.
