    Pazzo levers

    Those look like nice grips. I looked around on their site and couldn't get a good description of them. Is it the soft kind of gel used in those stress balls that you squeeze and they sort of form to your hand? Do you have a set? I use the foam type grip with a mod to the throttle side to get it...

    One tough machine !!

    Everywhere I ride is deer country. I've just resolved to slow down, scan constantly and cover my brake. I sometimes imagine what it would be like to ride out of city limits and not have to worry about it.

    Brake Pad Life

    28k and the new pads are ready but the old pads are still going. The spec for the pad thickness limit is .5mm. I won't let them get that far but they wear so slowly I have no idea when they'll be ready.

    Caliper Rebuild

    I didn't see where you checked the fluid level in the reservoir. That's the only thing I can think of that could cause the lever to pull all the way to the bar but be able to be pumped back up. Interesting problem.

They have computer driven machines that can take an image or text and put it where you want and in the size you want...

    Is the picture underexposed or did they stop putting a decal on the lower fairing? I checked. They stopped. I like that clean look. Beautiful color!
