Rear Brake Options

$100 for a stock hydro brake set up is pretty good, I would jump on it.
There is the issue of fixed vs floating rotor (disk).
Blaster cable brakes uses floating rotor, fixed caliper,
Blaster stock Hydro uses fixed rotor, floating caliper.

I used a Warrior floating caliper (I believe the same as stock Blaster hydro caliper) on my older Blaster with its floating disk by using a steel adaptor to mount the caliper solidly to the axle carrier.

Removed the slider pins and bracket.
Unbolted it at the park brake block.
The 1/4" steel bar sandwiches under the park brake block.
The lower "tang" hanging off the carrier is from a floating 250 Ninja brake I ran earlier:

I still have this and could sell it if you wanted to run a fixed disk like on later axle.

Rear master cylinder can use any rear cylinder really:

Notice the lever is extended front and back, NEEDED. Leverage is an issue.

sucks picture dont load. and i welded a part onto the stock brake pedal but yeah LEVERAGE sucks it brakes but like needs alot of weitghtt to lock up..
but i have floating disk and floating caliper. its mounted with the plate that doess hte floating mount. so i cant really remove it unless i make a custom plate (it already had welded tabs on the rear for it)
and i tried solide mount the bracket but after 10min the screw i used wass getting lose so put back in the floating screw... and i didnt notice a difference into braking it still sucks...
