    Pilot scheme in Austria

    In Austria there have been some new (oval) road markings appearing, these are supposed to stop bike riders hugging the centre lines in the bends, which apparantly is a cause for many accidents in Austria. Here's the (German) story. Neue Bodenmarkierungen für Motorradfahrer « DiePresse.com

    Pulled the trigger on R6 forks - a few questions

    So I saw a set of forks from an '03 R6 come up locally and nabbed them. $280 for the forks, calipers and axle, so I'm feeling pretty good about that. I have a couple questions for people who have done this: 1) Brake lines: Did you go with stock length, or get them a bit longer? I'll be...

    Aftermarket brake line selection

    Probably about time for me to clean my brakes and change the fluid, and I'm thinking about changing to SS lines while I'm at it. I was wondering: a) Is there any meaningful difference in quality between different suppliers of SS lines? b) Do they all do two lines from the MC, or is there a...

    Front brakes - some questions

    Sorry for another brake thread, but I have a couple of questions. I've just done the winter maintenance on my 2004 FZ6. OEM pads still had 3/4 left so i put them back in. I cleaned pistons, and scraped some crud from the side of the pads (didn't touch the surface though). My holder plates...

    Brake mod a little different.

    It's mostly a theory but I wanted to ask. I upgraded brakes by HEL lines and gold EBC brake pads. Also put 10W for oil. I have S1 so the calipers cannot be changed without fork change. I could look for S2 forks and calipers (plug and play comparing to R6 mod) as R6 calipers and S2 calipers are...
