If I move up I would get a Blackbird; they aren't appreciated for being as awesome as they are! I like them over the Hayabusa! What do you guys think of the LBS?

I felt the LBS more on my 93 CBR1000F than my bird. It is noticable on the the track but not much in street conditions.

At least they are Two Bro's. When you get a little older put a full system on it, the difference is well worth it.

Stock Busa's are a pretty even race for me with an equal weight rider from 0-the top end. ZX12's don't keep up. From 100 mph roll on the new Gxxr's and CBR 1000's will jump ahead a couple length's till I hit 5th, then the ram air and fairing do their thing and pass them in 6th.

I don't notice LBS at all, on the centerstand I can run the motor in gear, clutch, grab the front brake and the rear tire keeps spinning.

ooook....if you grab the front brake lever thats what it ingages.....front brake....the linked system is the foot brake. it ingages the rear and ONE front rotor

Thank's, That explain's it. I use both brake's anyways. Was cruising about 150 the other week when some lady decided she wanted my lane, grabbed a handfull of front and stepped on the rear hard enough to lock the tire up for a second. Got slowed down in a hurry with no incident.

DevilishT2003 · 12-24-2004, 12:05 AM

yeah mine work good at 150+ too

kf4mtw · 12-24-2004, 07:57 AM

Try replacing all the brakepads at 5-6000 mile's if you want to see stop. What a difference.

DevilishT2003 · 12-24-2004, 02:37 PM

i wanna stop like this

kf4mtw · 12-30-2004, 06:54 AM

I'm too old for that crap, like both wheels on the ground at all time's. I would never forgive myself if I crashed my XX foolin around.

Bought a new XR650 couple months ago for goofin on.

DevilishT2003 · 09-01-2005, 10:02 AM

traded my old XX for a 600RR to get the TLR which i'm not happy with. (for sale) Local friend was selling his XX for cheap so i had to pic it up....will get more pics sometime soon.

IcXX · 03-25-2008, 01:02 PM

My XX with my other 3 rides.

Time to wake up old threads

I still have the stock cans (modified), VFR bars and the Johar foam grips. I just ordered a Penske 8983 shock from H.A.R.D. Racing
Also have Spiegler SS braided lines, DP HH pads, modified stock seat, Throttlemiester cruise control, Red Fox hugger, Race Tech fork springs, 99 windscreen, Fenda Extenda, Strebel Air Horn (120db) with custom mount, stock front and JT rear sprocket, DID X-Ring gold link chain (for a little bling!).

Just did a major tune up and coolant flush. Unit now has 43000+ miles and runs like a watch. Last time I had it on a Dyno, it put out right at 130 brake HP.

No current pictures however.
