I respectfully dis-agree in the "Ok for now" if the bike is ridden in traffic. The best mod I ever made was putting discs on my Shadow, and prior to that I cloned the stopping distance test ran 'back in the day'. I flat spotted a tireI have 1. 1/4" pivots on my Dog leg levers, I thought they would give more leverage,
But I have been told I am wrong,
Just saying my brake is better for me,
I also have a disc setup I " could " put on if I wished,
But OK for now.
doing it and basically over-shot the point I REALLY wanted to stop at by about 100'. No, the stock brakes aren't OK for today's riding in my opinion. Or, if you've never had to do an emergency stop, you won't believe me.
