When I started building my street tracker I found a 19" front wheel that was set up with twin disks. To convert the bike to dual front disks I also will need a left side caliper, larger master cylinder, twin disk manifold and the brake line for the left side. Not many Yamaha XS650s had the twin disks and finding a used left side caliper was proving difficult. It appears that an XS1100 caliper will bolt right on. I found a good deal on line from Boise Vintage Cycle and Salvage. I will add photos and info as I gather the necessary components.
