tracking a blade

Just don't get a 1000cc god knows what your times would be then .

 

I wanna do sub 1.50 next time didnt hit all the apexs last time still learning the track, theres bits i could of gone faster but was slowing down for the camera shots after hizzys haha

 

Where did you get Ms cylinder from mate i cant see any on fleabay?

 

Mine was £295 with the brembo brake fluid resovoir and bracket of eBay , or google it and that will show some ,but I have seen some second hand on this forum and eBay a lot cheaper .

If you go on eBay and search brembo master cylinder there are loads both new and second hand . You will need the bigger banjo bolt but most come with it

 

haven't read the replies but simple answer would be

set up or better suspension.
track fairings

then brakes,

everything else after is just getting it set up for you.

 

ABS or non ABS on track?

 

Would be non abs for me, great on the road but fades bad on track apparently.


Sure other who have it will tell you otherwise though. But personally think its not needed on track.

 

for me non,but never had an ABS bike.

worth noting that an ABS blade will not get through scrutineering due to the config of the lines,and i believe it's a bit of a pain to change them (so much so my m8 sold his after buying to race but then found out in the morning he wasn't allowed out on it )

 

Can't be all Bad as the 24 Hr Endurance squads and Dunlop & McPint's TT Blades have C-ABS written all over their front ends so one assumes they must be running it?

 

Non ABS. More to go wrong, added weight and complication. Probably useful in endurance where fatigue can settle in and mistakes can be made due to tiredness. But for track work, non ABS every time.

 

They also have a team of mechanics and don't have to worry about maintaining it, service costs and I'm pretty sure if they have it it's not the same system us plebs buy in the shop....

Ps - ever think they do stick it all over the bikes anyway just to make you think that and sway your purchase choice at the dealers?

 

i'd be very suprised if they did run ABS on the race bikes,theres absolutley no need for it imo on a race track.if your locking the front on wets,on a wet track then it's your riding style that needs addressing,not your brakes.

it wont stop the front sliding out if you take a corner to quick,shame they dont have a gadjet for that

 

Can't be certain if it's C-ABS or not but they sure as hell don't look like my brakes

 

if you read the specs theres no mention of it,so i'm gonna say no...
