Have you ridden other bikes with brakes you like ?
Is it possible to direct more airflow to the caliper to keep it cooler ?

Pete, I have the 2 pot brembo off my old duck if you want it... (only one...)
Are there a lot of people who use speed bleeders? Thinking about picking some up for the master and calipers as well.
You got more mail Chuck.
I'm probably in the minority but I hate them. Tried to bleed my 929 with them probably 3-5 times and they just suck, litererally. I couldn't get air to stop reentering the lines when they are supposed to be designed to stop air from coming back in. first time bleeding the 600 without speed bleeders after swapping the Brembo onto it and it was a breeze. all I did was squeeze the reservoir tube and squeeze the lever quickly in between squeezing the tube. got virtually all the air out of the lines without ever cracking a bleeder screw. once I did crack the bleeders it was just a couple times and done.

Chuck, have you ever thought about just riding the bike as is and worrying about go fast stuff when you....uh...start going fast?
Aak, this thread got me wanting a 15FCS for my motarrrrd. :(
What abouts these as alternatives to the $64/liter DOT5.1 David mentioned:
$14.99/355ml = $42.23/liter

Chuck, just use tap water
I know you're kidding and are tired of my question sand and shit, but I really don't have a clue about brake maintenance.
I was just asking an honest question, because I would have a hard time paying $64 for a liter of brake fluid.
BTW, thanks to everyone for talking me out of blowing money on parts I probably couldn't use 1/10000th of their awesomeness on.
the first one you can't use. DOT 5 is not compatible and can't be mixed with DOT3, 4, or 5.1. but those 3 can be mixed together.
I've been using this for a few years and have been happy. I believe Ted also has it http://www.ronayers.com/ProductDetai...37/SKU/1625226
