Disc brake conversion.

[dvlscoupe]

Does anybody know of a disc conversion for a '72XL front drum. The front brake is gone and has been for some time. I was thinking of just throwing a dirt bike resivior and components on the front. I figure these components are small enough that they would still keep the simple look, but also be better than no brake at all.

Probably the cheapest and easiest way to convert it would be to find a complete 35 mm front end off a newer Sportster with wheel and all. They seem to be pretty plentiful and dirt cheap.

I'm doing the same thing on the back, but I've got to get a M/C setup and caliper, too.
