Somedays I like to get it tapped out in fifth and hit the brake and drift it sideways as far as I can. The best fun is then dropping the clutch in third and spinning up the rear to power out the corner with a huge rooster tail. Hey wait a minute, thats the motorcrosser.....
I still think it settles the rear on the road bike and was put there for a reason, if they would fit I'd have two..


That's interesting!

Does the Mille caliper fit on the stock bracket?
Main problem I have with the back brake, like most folks I think, is that it doesn't stay air-free for five minutes. Bleed it., and the pedal's firm for a while, but in no time it's hitting the fairing panel again.
I'm getting one of those Mityvac bleeders to try to get to grips with this problem.
