Enfield Supermono

It's also seriously over-braked with 2 x 320mm discs stopping 130kg and hi-spec machined Brembo calipers up front (even if they are the older axial caliper mounting).

My mate successfully competed on a Supermono some years ago. He purchased one that had a twin disc ATE set up. After his very first ride on it, one disc and caliper was removed, as he thought it massively overbraked, and would never get used to it.

In 1985 I was racing LC250 and LC350

Much preferred the twin discs on 350.

Yeah but OE Elsie brakes were crap.

It's also very optimistic

I agree - had a smile on my face the couple or so times I've had a go on one.

I remember the RGV basically having the same brakes as a GSXR1100, it was like hitting a brick wall if you gave it s handful.

Similar with the KR1S and ZXR750 I seem to recall.
