    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Anti-dive haters?

Maybe I'm missing something. I've had a few bikes fitted with it through the years and if I'm honest never really noticed any difference in either handling or braking. Sure, if you concentrate on the anti-dive when braking you'll notice it (even then it's marginal) but if you forget you've got it you won't.
 
When I got my bike the antidive was still active, and in an emergency stop my brake lever would touch the bars, if there were any fingers on the bars they got squished. This is after bleeding the brakes a few times. After disconnecting it the brakes were firmer, and no noticable increase in front end dive. The brakes were still mushy though. I upgraded to the kawasaki twinpot calipers and cbr rotors, and its like night and day difference. And I am still using the stock brake lines:rolleyes::eek:
