Gloat, gloat, gloat.....that's normally my job! :D

Glad you got a good deal, now if we get lost in Tassie...it's your fault! :D
 
New levers are great but i have a question....This is my 1st set of after market levers & im wondering if someone could explain to a simpleton like me why the new levers make the clutch operation so much lighter & front brake have so much more feeling :confused: After all they do the same as the OEM levers....

It's the machining tolerances...less "play" amongst all the moving parts, resulting in better "torque', when the lever is pulled, which equals better control of both pulling the lever in, and releasing it, especially in the case of the clutch...much better.

Yep, the OEM levers, which i admit, i dont have that much of an issue with, as long as they are kept adjusted, are just cheap castings, where as the aftermarket levers like yours, are machined out of billet...

If you aint already got em, get braided lines...that up's the game with the brakes again...and i dont know why i am telling you this...cause i know you know...but braided lines = good!

Hey, Welcome aboard buddy! A new SA member! Woop! Woop!

Excuse my over-enthusiasm, but new "SA Fizzers" dont come along very often.

Hey Scoby...(i have forgotten your real name already....dont be offended, my memory is crap!), enjoyed our little chat at Yamaha Pitmans the other day....would love to catch up for a ride one day soon...

Now how about posting some pictures of your pride and joy in this thread!

BUMP! Surely some of you have bought some new "you beaut" gear for Spring or Summer, that you wanna tell the world about???

I just orderec a new Rego Roll up thingo, after my last "el cheapo" one disintergrated...

This time i decided to get a full alumium rool up thingo, rather than a cheap plastic one...will write up a review after it arrives, and i have put it on one of my fizzers...

:thumbup:
 
Havent bought anything yet , I did however bath my summer mesh jacket yesterday it is getting a little warm for a full textile one now :D... Definately going to buy some summer gloves on the weekend as the ones from the last couple of summers are cactus , probably go with another pair of Shift Streetfighter had a good run out of the last pair :thumbup:

Im still undecided if im going to replace the AGV yet , a new visor & she is fine now :cheer: But I do really really like the look of the new OGK FF-5 in green :drool:
