    just wondering why the chap spent a while adjusting the pazo but no time adjusting the cheap Chinese copy. mine adjust to work ok. Just as a side issue I said I also buy expensive I bought a set of Hel ABS brake lines for the cbr, they were a nightmare to fit as they were a mile out,If I did not have a machine workshop I would not have been able to fit them. I thought my main probs would be bleeding but no. Has anyone fitted a set of these lines, At the moment I have no test jig for testing I will have to have a think about it, I still have not been convinced to remove my lovely gold cheap levers

    Yep. I put a set on my 2011 earlier in the year. No fitting problem, except for the separate lines requiring different 'P' clip attachment to the lower yoke. But as far as union bends and cable lengths, no problem.

    I wonder if there is a difference between 2011 and 2013 models and mine are to fit the wrong model. The angles were wrong on some of the lines, the manifolds were at the wrong angle, the manifolds were drilled 5mm instead of tapped m5

    Not sure what he's breaking for there?? Probably another 100 yards or so before he needed to brake and at that speed I wouldn't say he even needed to touch the brakes going into Druids. o_O

    At higher speed you would definitely need to scrub some speed off, but not there where he was!

    Long sweeping left to right that bend but he's still on the straight :eek:

    But I'm highlighting the rider error here......I'm presuming this video is about a faulty Chinese lever sticking or something??o_O

    The detail on one of @BlackDevil 's accompnying videos stated: 'I had installed eBay's "Finest" copycat brake levers on my GSXR and the divot that the needle sits in rotated due to vibration and gradually increased pressure in my brake line resulting in the wheel locking up.'

    This particular video might well be a similar situation with no rider input needed.:)
