Gen 1 Busa Braking Up-Grade

OK I have had My 05 Busa since it was new. I have always loved the bike. I have the Turbo set-up with the fuel rail. This has been putting a silly grin on my face since the day it was installed in 9/05. The one area where I like most Gen 1 Busa owners have felt like it needed help was the brakes. I have been running stainless lines and HH pads since 06 Recently after purchasing a 08 B King with the Gen II brakes I checked around for a cost effective upgrade.
Here is my most recent upgrade

I had a local Busa Guru (Gixerhp) do the conversion Dam what a difference! Now My budget does not yet support a conversion to Brembo Callipers but Just adding this to the stock callipers and rotors makes an amazing difference. Much more stopping power and much easier to modulate. Now I suppose I will have to find the cash to convert the Clutch in just the interest of Symmetry
