That said.. with the bigger wheelsyou have just increased the rotating inertia of your wheels/tire combination. That is like adding flywheels so you now have much more stored (rotating) energy to dissipate when stopping. That's where the big brakes will really help you.
Any words on the effectiveness on the ABS and front to proportioning since the weight distribution of the SSR is not the same as the TB?

And THAT'S why every forum needs a rocket scientist on board.....that's the kind of info I was looking for.
Thanks Art.
