Brake swap?

[motodude]

I've got a '95 K75RT with ABS I.  From my perspective, the brakes on these bikes are anemic and don't really need ABS.  I don't like the fugly ABS cannisters on each side and I really don't like the loss of all the space in the tail compartment.  But, that's just me (I'm sure I'm in the minority on this) and someone else may actually want ABS.

Anyway, I thought I'd throw this out.  I'd be willing to swap my working and in good shape (34K on the bike) ABS I for non-ABS calipers, rotors, etc.  The foot-peg plates would need to be swapped as well as other parts which is why I'm wondering if anyone is interested in swapping.

Thanks for your time,
Tom

I removed the ABS components from my 91 K75RT last summer. I'm using the same calipers and master cylinders. I had to get some new brake hoses fabricated in order to make things fit after I removed the metal brake lines. Removed the ABS relay to bypass the ABS warning light.

Brakes have worked great since then and the bike is twenty-five pounds lighter.

I may end up just removing the ABS too.  I realize this idea of swapping is a long-shot.  I just thought that if someone was interested, they could get some use out of it since there's nothing wrong with the ABS components.
