Anyone ever seen dual front brakes on a supermoto? I'm curious to know if it's been done. I would think it could done for pretty cheap with complete setups off of new supersports going for under $100 on ebay. Use a streetbike wheel that is setup for dual rotors. The only hangup I can see is figuring out a way to mount the caliper on the right side of the fork. Maybe find another set of forks and use two left sides? I think it could work on my XR as I believe the castings for the caliper mount are more or less centered. Could it really be that simple? And would it be useable? A single 320 mm disc and 4 pot can chuck me over the bars pretty good as it is...

Waste of time and money in my opinion :headshake . One 320 rotor with a good caliper is all you could ever need. Two rotors and calipers is just un-needed weight.

Rotational and unsprung at that too.

Overkill? Yea defently would look very cool though for the street.

That would be going backwards. Most of the fastest roadracers convert to single disk from dual if they are light enough to get away with it. I bet this will be the norm as the carbon ceramic stuff starts trickling down. Imagine 1 finger front brake with a 220mm carbon ceramic disk! It will happen.
