I wonder if this super cool front brake set up on the new Erik Buell Racing 1190R would work on older XB's ? I like the carbon fiber cooling ducts . The motorcycle magazines are raving about how good the front brake is now . For the most part , they love the 1190R . (Finally)  | ||

The caliper and rotor will work, but the cooling duct will not work with the stock forks without modification, but its not like much modification is needed.  | ||

Yeah its a pretty slick set up , I would think probably pricey too . I guess on the 1190R they changed every component in the front brake assy . Look at that master cylinder , it looks like the expensive radial type like the racers use . Super Nice !  | ||

Yep everything on that bike is top shelf in terms of components, and the price reflects it, but you do indeed get what you pay for (and then some). |
