What is a good size brake rotor for the rear to go with? Im going to try and 8.5 inch. Is that to big or just about rite? I had a 7 on it and just didnt seem to be enough it would get a bit warm. But again that was with a mechanical type caliper i went to a hydrolic type.

I used a 10" aluminum disk on a soft track and it picked up a lot of dirt and wore out the pad in one season.
