What a strange turn of events, to have motorcycling advancements trickle down (up?) to automobile applications. Says something very positive for the ingenious mind of Erik Buell...

That isn't even just a copy, those are Buell rotors and calipers.

We had a thread a while ago about the recent Volvo Hot Rod concept car. Check out the brakes.

The Dodge Copperhead (car? bike?) had ZTL style brakes, years ago....

Not so fast, Duc-

Xb has a valid point- ZTL-config. brakes have been used on other vehicles, before,a nd the employemnt of any cool feature on a one-off custom is no reason to 'get carried away'.
I like the ZTLs, and I certainly like Buells, but , as Xb said...Let's not get carried away, here.
