    I don't know about you guys, but the perimeter back rotor is pretty sweet...I like the look of that wheel setup.

    I'd change the 'stupid-wide' rear tire to just a 'wide' tire, make the front brake a perimeter rotor too... and rock it. Looks cool to me

    I'd probably have to make the front rotor on the left side too though. It'd look kinda funny with one on the right and one on the left.

    more braking power in the rear?!?!?!?

    That's what I find most ridiculous about this brake set-up. It ignores the fact that 80% of the stopping power comes from the front wheel.

    Of course, I guess the point of a bike like this is not to, you know, actually ride it, but just park it in front of the bar, so, whatever...

    I like the bike. But then again I like v-rods.
