My disc brake setup for the zb 10" wheels cost over $400 just for the front. This was a Monkey R front hub, NSR forks, NSR front rotor, NSR front Caliper, stainless braided brake line, ZX 5/8" master cylinder. Expect to spend over double that for NSR wheels and suspension.

NSR50 fork legs Monkey R Hub (will bolt to your ZB50 outer wheel) NSR50 220mm rotor and caliper Monkey R speedo Drive S10 will post up his setup shortly to see if that's the direction you want to go. |

I am expecting to have pix up by the weekend. Possibly mock up pix tomorrow, but I am waiting on a dust seal and spacer from honda that wont be in until friday. If you get good deals on everything expect.... $140+ for monkey r hub new $200+ for NSR forks with brake caliper and rotor. $xx for speedo sender or delete spacer. I got a free delete spacer with my front end. $xx for custom length brake line. NSR one is too long no matter what your setup is. $60+ for a decent master cylinder. $65 in misc parts from honda. spacers, dust seals, bearings, and whatnot. $15-20 for brake fluid and fork oil. I know I am forgetting some parts, but it is hard to remember everything. I got pretty good deals on everything and I spent over $500. |
