Brake problem

[greg frank]

l own Honda Unicorn which has clocked 18,000km. The rear brake does not seem to be effective, and to address this issue I have visited the dealer as well. The dealer changed the rear brake liner, but it still feels ineffective. Can I fit a disc brake at the rear?

If the rear brake liner was installed recently, it will feel a bit off. That is normal and you need to give the new liner time to bed in. We wouldn't bother with the rear disc. Most of a motorcycle's brake force comes from the front disc, and the Unicorn's drum is far from poor in the first place.
