Seth mentioned that disks will use fluid as the pads wear and the
pistons move out the bore.
True for sure, but - really - how fast are you going to wear disk brakes
down?
If you use a stock m/c with disks, just keep an eye on the fluid every
few months until you determine what's needed.
My '61 m/c is working fine and holds enough fluid.
That's with the drums in front (early Tempest 9") and disks in back (87
Olds).
Not spectacular but as long as I can make four black marks on the
pavement, it is good enough.
yeah, the effort and pedal travel are both more than I'd like, but
tolerable.
