              Those fork emulators are interesting may have to get some. I'm gonna stick with the calipers I have for this year hope to upgrade the whole frontend next winter

                rebuilt calipers on


                after a epic battle with the carbs (38mm into 36mm boots) i resorted to drastic measures using mechanical advantage (not my proudest moment) and it worked

                        Looking sweet but might I suggest a much larger mid pipe on that exhaust system?

                          That is something i have considered but in my experience with this header collector it is very good at mid and lower rpms. A larger collector and midpipe may be better as I'm no expert on headers i asked that same question when this system was developed and they said no this will work better overall.
