For those of us that want to stop better what can we do?
I have an 82 westy diesel & even as slow as it is it needs to stop better.  I wish it had the stopping power of my 71 westy.  I do not have the cash for a big upgrade.  Is there better pad, rotor, shoe & drums to that will help & still stay within the stock specs?
Is there an after market rotor that is vented? I also need to stay with the 14" wheel the 1.6 n/a will not push 15".

Thank you,

Chris
