Re: DO i need handbrake yet?

Get the handbrake and use it as little as possible. I see a lot of people who ride the HB or foot brake wayyy to hard and too much. When it gets dark, you can see their rotors glowing red after just one pass....in the LOT!!! They need to really work on their throttle control.

listen no offense. i mean your avatar is of 2 mint lookin bikes. do you even know how to wheelie? let alone use your brake?

play catch up?? he needs to learn his footbrake first. like others in this post said you can do ss tanks highchairs. for miles without a handbrake. i did and so did many others. and he is geared so high he doesnt even need to use the brake
i have seen subframes crack in a plethor a of pieces, but my 929 was built from an ebay sale of a frame, motor and tranny, my gsxr too. the gsxt has a rattle can paint job n the picture was a few days after i finished it, its also night time and small. but thank you for saying i do minty work and after a year n a half of stunten im finally doing my own handbrake kit, i do need to stop babying my ***** and move my 12 bar up though
but for my minty handiwork, i greatly appreciate it.

btw: u may have seen my post "929 help greatly appreciate it" i got rear ended in july, real bad, 3 comas, cant work again till july so im redoing the gsxr n rebuilding the 929, alreaqdy replaced the frame, but i need a subframe, rear rim and a tank, if u know where i can get for reasonable price i greatly appreciate that too, but the big issue is that everything works but the headlight and the ignition, any ideas?
