This is a Japanese 'Honda Accessories' instruction booklet that I actually got with a belly pan, however the instructions are for the fitting of the nose fairing which was also available as a spare part. The gatefold booklet is written in Japanese with the English words 'Co-ordinate Fine & Motorcycle Life' written at the top. Have you ever seen one before?

MBX80 Double Disc
The UK market MBX80 gained a front double disc brake, this made an already well specked machine even more desirable especially when you are 17! The model codes for the double disc models are FWD-D (1983) and FWD-F (1985).
To make this conversion you need quite a few parts and they are also quite rare as it seems they are not shared with any another Honda model, you will need:
1/ left fork leg - 51521GE3601
2/ disc rotor - 45121166000
3/ brake callipers LH + RH (these are single piston sliding callipers) - 45100GE3601 + 45101GE3601
4/ fork brace with left hand hose guide - 61102GE3600
5/ brake hoses (3pcs) - various, I used these
6/ Front brake two-way joint - 45128GE3601
7/ front brake master cylinder (different piston size). - 45500GE3601
2/ disc rotor - 45121166000
3/ brake callipers LH + RH (these are single piston sliding callipers) - 45100GE3601 + 45101GE3601
4/ fork brace with left hand hose guide - 61102GE3600
5/ brake hoses (3pcs) - various, I used these
6/ Front brake two-way joint - 45128GE3601
7/ front brake master cylinder (different piston size). - 45500GE3601
8/ disc rotor bolts x 3 - 90155GE3600
