ABSTRACT:
A shielded disc brake system for motorcycles having structure for inducing radial air flow past the brake disc. The device includes an annular passageway between the hub and the shield which may include a centrifugal fan positioned therein. The fan may include passageways between vanes longitudinally aligned with radial passages in the brake disc. The disc itself is mounted about its periphery on bosses extending from the hub. The fan is then bolted to the ends of the bosses to retain the disc from axial movement away from the bosses. Screening members may also be positioned about the periphery of the disc and across inlet ports to provide additional effective closure of the disc brake cavity within the side panel or panels.
