Some updates. Got to mock up and fit my new seat latch and a little more trimming on the fiber work. Got some new header gaskets for my other bike but when i was about to start to fit them and i saw how much i had ahead of me i gave up and went to the other bike to fiddle with the seat latch and get it to work. Now i need to make a prong for the seat to fit the latch. Drawn a couple lines to see where i would put my blinkers made out of individual high intensity LEDs. Do you think that i can use this LED stop light? It doesn't fit bad i think. I can make some kind of bracket and cowling for it to fit properly and flush. I also started to convert my remaining covers but no pictures yet. Its like the Duracell bunnies it just keeps going...

Hmmm i got the goodies i was waiting for. Started already fiddling with the menus and such. Got this in a package deal with everything included. I'll be selling some of the modules because i don't need them all and they are handy for the guys with turbos and chargers. Enough with the blabbing here it is...

Can't wait to see the final results unk:

Do you think that i can use this LED stop light?

Yep! I bought one like this. Mine was to suit a Sachs Madass, so mine was Chinese. When I tested it I thought that it was a bit weak, so I didn't use it.

For anyone reading this, this light also goes close to fitting the standard rear fender, provided you can glue/weld a piece of flat plastic as a mounting point. Then you can bin the steel inner guard too. Similar to the CBR light mod, but smaller and lighter. :biglaugh:

There will be no final results... Thats the fun in it...

All that I can say is that you are a true craftsman.

Time for an update. Cleaned up the new calipers that im about to fit. I always said i wanted 12 pots up front to match the rear now it will happen. The forks are being worked out for a new look and its getting closer. I started to mess around with some covers. I want to install Windows on my bike but i only have hardware for Windows 4 so it will be it. Working on the gen cover for now and the other smaller ones are getting ready. Just need to get a ring to make it pretty... And thats all for now...

I never understood why some guys need so many pots?? I mean are we stoping a freight train? Ya they look cool but how fast are you guys going to need all that braking power. I never got it.. JS

 

[wildweasel_pt]

My bike is more like a battering ram. If i need it?... Most likely not (i have radial 4 pots now)... If i like it?... Yes... I add liking with wanting and i get to a result... This is the result (almost)... :biglaugh:

 

[Redbone]

I run dual 'Busa 6 pots on Redbone and they are not overkill by any stretch of the imagination. They allow for maximum braking and good modulation as needed.

 

[donnelly317]

I got fzr1000 6 pots and amazing difference compared to 4 pots.. I can stop on a dime! I dont think my 4 pots had HH pad but my 6 pots do. They look cool and more surface area on pad meening better braking.. and the feel of the brakes is night and day with the nissin master too

 

[wildweasel_pt]

After the new look on the calipers i needed to get a set of bolts to finish the look. Instead of buying expensive pro-bolt stuff i got standard bolts and turned them to fit my needs... gave them a good polish and now they'll be shiny forever... Stainless stuff...

 

[wildweasel_pt]

I decided to do a facelift on my 07-08 R1 forks. Stripped them down for an alu look and lightened them a bit by cutting off the center of the caliper bracket...

 

[satariel666]

Cool, you just removed the 30% of rigidity But what da hell, ey...

My '90 came with a single brake pot on each side. It now has aftermarket cams , HMF 4-2 C.F. cans , Stage 7 Carbs , R-1 Front End with Brembo Rotors & 3 brake pots on each side. 130 mph is not out of the question when I stretch it out on the _______ Interstate , when traffic is non-existant. I have a front R-1 dual pot brake on the rear wheel , notched & braced swingarm , Works Street Tracker shocks , Lightcon 17 " wheels and Michelin Pilot Power radials , and it goes throuth the curves very well. When some cager makes a mental error of any kind , I want to be able to stop my favorite little blue pig as quickly as I need to , at the moment I have to , in order to save both my little blue pig and my covered in gear , favorite rear end. unk:
