Hi there, If you have road tyres/supermoto wheels then the front brake mod is HIGHLY recommended!! The standard crm brakes are pretty poor! If you are still running knobblys I myself wouldn't recommend fitting a disc that big, mainly cos even on the road the brake would out perform the tyre, off road I think you would be locking up everywhere!!?? I would just get some decent pads and a braided line makes a big improvement too! Don't know what anybody else thinks???
