    Bolt thread

    single vs dual disc brakes

    i seen that the gs650E runs a duel disc setup in the front and i was wondering how big of a difference will it make from a single disc setup, in order to do the swap it might just have to be the whole front end as the calipers, wheels, brake discs, and triple trees are a different part number...
