Braided brake lines and pilot powers

Before you make it faster, Make it actually stop

H-town Hustler · 04-25-2008, 09:00 AM

50/50 slow and fast. i just can help it sometime my right wrist has a mind of it own.

Gryphin · 04-25-2008, 09:00 AM

a trackday was my best investment... then gpr steering damper, then prob gearing, then exhaust , then pc3 with tune, then tires, then more trackdays

H-town Hustler · 04-25-2008, 09:02 AM

for $15,000 a year, you could self-insure, with a bond. Save the money, and even see a small return at the end of the year.
Just IMO, of course

H-town Hustler · 04-25-2008, 09:05 AM

That how much they wanted, i just got the basic, $85 a year.

SCRC John · 04-25-2008, 09:07 AM

Oh and as far as mods go, in this order.

Frame sliders
swingarm sliders / spools
Brake lines & pads (I like EBC pads)
Scotts Steering dampner (my preference again)
Suspension setup (May need components, depending on your size)

From there, who cares. That thing is faster than you need on the street anyway. Try a trackday.....It will slow you down on the street, it did for me.

You said you couldn't afford trackdays because of this awesome $15K/year insurance, So I guess I'll be seeing you at the track

andre3k · 04-25-2008, 09:12 AM

hope you paid cash for the bike then......

H-town Hustler · 04-25-2008, 09:22 AM
