I think the EBC pads do provide more initial bite but you then have to release pressure on the lever as the pads heat up. Not ideal mid corner. I have found that SBS pads provide a much more linear bite so that the same pressure can be maintained throughout the whole braking phase Sent from my...

When I had my forks tuned the new position was protruding 5mm from the yoke instead of being flush as standard. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Oil filter is the most important part of the engine. OEM for me and torqued to spec. Too risky not to. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My plan is to use the optimate croc clips that plug into the Sae socket then clip them to the Xp3 clips. Not sure if the optimate battery harness is up to the ampage that would be required though. I bet someone who knows about those wiggly amp things would be able to work it out? Sent from my...

I use the antigravity xp3 too. I’ve not had to use it yet but I’m hoping if I do I can use the Optimate tail that’s already connected to the battery. However, I’m not that confident that the Optimate charging cable would handle the sort of current required for starting so my plan B would be to...

Yep, the arrow pipes don’t have cats so they run cooler than the OEM which does have them Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I saw a YouTube video where Metal Mule boxes were tested with various types of firearms to see if they were in fact bullet proof. From memory I think they managed to withstand .22 and were then submerged in water and remained watertight. Not sure what the purpose of the test was but if I ever...

I’m interested to learn what map changes were made to the S map as opposed to the T map. I assume that the S map is tuned for more power and torque and smoother throttle response but what is the T map tuned for? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m currently investigating if the Skylift swingarm kit can be used on the ST footed mounts like my Zx14r can Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ve had several Harleys and I get what they are about. But they should stick to the only thing they do well: producing good looking cruisers that don’t try to compete with anything else. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My off road trainer went to great lengths to explain that with an ABS system making several thousand interventions per second it can do a much better job than most humans. One of our first tasks was to deliberately activate it on wet grass to see how effective it is. I certainly wouldn’t want to...
