Re: Stunt parts inventions?
im hoping, but i only have a few, from the blown motors sitting around my house. im thinking of doing them for $30 with a $10 core charge for the stock arm ($20 with the stocker).

Re: Stunt parts inventions?
right now I have no FB and the HB(gix19mm) works 2 calipers,its literaly the strongest ******* HB possible, I had a brembo 16(1 caliper) and it worked good but my finger would still get tired and all caulesed up, but now I can ride hours and my finger does not get tired at all

Re: Stunt parts inventions?
i'm pushing for 4 piston brackets for more bikes.
an affordable one would be even better. Atown was talking about fabing up some brackets.
i would love to get them for all my bikes (R6 and 900rr)
right now my hohey is in the mail fo rthe 636, they are
but pricey!!!

Re: Stunt parts inventions?
yeah the stock 1piston calipers,are there 2 piston calipers that work on f4i's?
those are strong but mine is SO much stronger, its close to twice the pad surface area and a gix19mm has like a on/off feel with 1 caliper,but with 2 it has the same feel as a brembo16 but like twice the power.

Re: Stunt parts inventions?
i bet it does work good...19's are made for two cal. so i can see how it would... someone could probly fab an adapter for another caliper, providing there is enough room to fit it

Well yes, I'm high. BUT how would that not be cool? Your bike looks better with a rear cowl but how many times has a chick wanted to smash off with you but you couldn't cuz your rear seat is in your garage. Alot for me

Re: Stunt parts inventions?
your abs idea has one flaw it would require a plastic injection mold that was atlease 18 inches by 12. by 16. just the steel alone would be 4k that doesnt count machine time, engineering and anything else that would need to be done. to make what you want there would have to be around $65,000 invested before you had a mold to pump them out . . . . and then you would need different cavities to mold parts for different bikes anything that would require molding of any type of plastic would not be cost effective in this market at all . . . . . . .
Ok how bout "Hand laid fiberglass" seat cowls with reinforcement
.I have a cowl for a 600rr that I may try using as a refference. I wish I had a ****** bike to start making some **** up on

Re: Stunt parts inventions?
I bet it would be really easy to make a dual bracket for newer radial mount calipers maybe even for the 6 piston r1 caliper.
We know bigger rotors on the front mean more stopping power and more brake control. I think putting a bigger rotor like a front rotor on the rear with a 4 piston would be the way to go for more control, feel and power. If you can feel the front brakes enough to do endos then it would be the same & would have to be better than what we currently have to work with on the rear.
Plus some of the pad is useless when using a 4 piston on the stock rear because the radius is too different to line up. The main reason the 4 piston is better like the Hohey isn't just because of power its because of feel.
Lots of handbrakes lock the rear easy but, how much can you "feather it" up to that point??
I can handle it as is but I still want less of an "ON -OFF" feel to it.
Thats my case anyways

Re: Stunt parts inventions?
I had it like that but didnt like it, now its set just like front brake on most bikes,with a long line to 1 caliper(with a double banjo)and a short line from that caliper to the 2nd one

Re: Stunt parts inventions?
I have looked into getting a larger rotor on the rear. The pad dose not make full contact on the rotor there is not enough room. mine is clocked a little so it clears the wheel hub. It was not difficult to make a bracket to hold the 4 piston on my r6.
