  1. Outstanding! Can you please send me a quote at your earliest convenience? Thanks in advance!
  2. Any chance of future availability for 2nd gens? I wouldn't mind waiting a while.
  3. You used to trail brake with your front brakes or rear brake? In the old days backs only and downing shifting but now I use front and back brakes and down shift only after speed has reduce , pads are cheaper then motors. Straight out of Keith Code mc driving school. I understand how link brakes work .... I never found the rear brake to be very effective when trail braking, nor do I rely on the engine as a brake either. Occasionally, I might gently tap the rear to tighten up mid turn, but it is rare. On the other hand, I frequently will trail brake with the fronts only until just before the apex of a corner.
  4. I dont think so, but some of us determined fooles just gotta do it. I'm glad I did. (Hey there's a poll for a count.) I've installed a lot of aftermarket brake lines, but I'm not very familiar with the linked brakes on the VFR. I have very limited experience riding with the system too. I was curious if those who did it find it to be a noticeable improvement or otherwise. It probly goes more with riding styles. My roots are in motocross so separate brakes are ingrained in my brain. True or not, I feel I have more control over the what is going on. If I want front only, I can do that, and if I want rear only or a blend, I control how much and when. Thats what I like. (The RC51 calipers are great) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Call for gig again -- did you get what you need? Interesting point. I don't have any motocross background and rarely touch my rear brake. On track, sometimes I use it to settle the bike before using the fronts aggressively for a turn. I agree, I like the RC51 calipers, but I am a huge Brembo fan and have had my best results with them.

  7. Is ditching the linked brake system fairly common?
