I see on another forum someone changed out his Nissin branded Victory brakes on both ends of his 13 Hammer with Brembos. Can someone tell me if the front calipers on a Vision can be swapped for Brembos? The standard brakes feel only average to me. I realize one could change pads to improve braking as an option but I prefer to use the front brakes more than the rear linked braking set up. Losing the linked system wouldn't worry me. Can any one help me here?

pads would do the job for you try EBC. Remember vision have 3 pistons per caliper

I have no direct experience but Brembo and EBC are quite popular around here.

Yeah thw hammer set up and the vision set up is very different ... i see you also have a NON-abs vision. .. i believe the 13 hammer might have ABS.. ? I remember yrars ago noticing my vision used the same brake pads as the honda goldwing. (For what ever that means) . I think one of the main importance would be having calibers that can mount to the forks.. same exact spacing etc etc

I agree on changing the pads for improved braking. EBC is a good brand and not pricey.
