Your Royal Enfield motorcycle can now have the added advantage of safe instant braking and surer stops with the new Royal Enfield Disc brake kit. You will find that the installation is simple, quick and inexpensive and can be fitted at any of our dealerships and Authorised Service Points in India. Once you have experienced the effortless, safe and instant braking that the disc brakes provide, you will never settle for anything less.There are two Disc Brake Kits, one with a short hose for models with the short or standard handlebars and another with a longer hose for the Lightning 535cc and models with longer handlebars.

Note: The Disc brake kit is not a retro fit for Thunderbird, The 2004 Bullet Electra and Bullet Machismo (five-speed). These bikes will need a new fork end to fit this Disc brake kit.

Why disc brakes work better?

- Superior stopping performance (shorter distances for stopping)
- Improved resistance to fade over drum brakes
- Better resistance to water flooding (self-wiping)
- Self-adjustment of slack (no frequent mechanical slack adjustments)
- High-torque development from a more compact and lighter package
- Efficient heat dissipation due to the open construction
- Better performance in wet & dirty conditions, since disc brakes are self-cleansing; leads to more uniform braking action
- Greater performance stability throughout the pressure / temperature spectrum of the brake pad combination
- Can be easily integrated with developing features of advanced electronic controls like ABS (Anti-lock Brake System).
