why would you do a single brake conversion for street riding? rather dangerous for street.

Please tell me someone has notified KHI engineers.
Too late for the 2013 models but rest assured the 2014 production run will be re-tooled.

What all of you guys are missing out on is the thrill of doing a complete front brake system delete and just running the rear brake with worn out pads and air bubbles in the lines. Talk about an eye opening ride.
