| Yeh, levers and pegs are the most common victims of crashes. And I had my share of them! What I found works best is to:
[list=1][*]put bungs on both ends of the front axle[*]don't use crash bungs but reinforce the fairing[*]use a master cylinder that has either fold-up levers or inexpensive rigid one (brembo's are about £20)[*]use rigid footpegs as they can act as a bung[*]keep levers, pegs, and handle bars in your toolbox, at least on each[/list=1]
This worked pretty well for my race season this year. I never had to abandon a track day or a race meeting, even though I crashed 4 times. And, the fairing including the carbon fibre clutch cover just now needs repairing, which will be limited to renewing the kevlar reinforcements and giving it to the sprayer.
As they say, you mileage may vary... |
