Grove 6.00-6 Wheels and Brakes?

[Mike S]

Have you considered using the 3 puck calipers, then playing around with the actuation arm at the pedal to get a different leverage and feel?

Or maybe using a larger bore master cylinder with the 3 puck calipers?

Many ways to skin this feline.

That’s a very good point!

Sure, both. And working from the other direction, Matco offers "intensifier" kits (a smaller master cylinder bore) to increase line pressure with the single piston calipers.

Right now I'm inclined toward a Grove 65-202 (3335 and 170K), but I'd like to hear more about why they recommend the -211.

You're not missing anything. I'm just looking at the choices and reporting here.

I changed to a sintered pads on my K1200RS - holy **** I know what brakes are now! I’ll bet you could confiscate a set of those to see what happens? Hmmm…..
