Busy dah. Anyway, I noticed my wheels, rear especially, aren't that great when it comes to sudden stops or fast slowing down. Skidded quite a few times. Even on dry tar. It's the...er...I think BT 021 or something. Not really sure about wheels. But do you guys think it's the tyres or the brakes are too sensitive? Threading is all still good so can't be that. I also suspect that the TDM is more front heavy so when you stop, even more weight goes to the front leaving the back practically floating. Reckon?

Fat chick or no fat chick, fact is I've skidded more than once on dry tar and it's no laughing matter. Both going straight and when turning. Wouldn't be a nice sight to anyone if I "initial D" drift while turning and crash into a bunch of pedestrians waiting to cross the road like a bowling ball striking 10 pins down no gutter ball.

 

The only time I had this problem was when I was riding my 2B and didn't know sh*t about bikes. Didn't bother with EO change or brakes or anything. Turns out my rear wheel was bald.

Hmm...maybe but I just pumped and followed tyre pressure accordingly. Maybe I'll go check on it again. Might need to take into consideration my load and perhaps suspensions too. Thanks, will try first. Cannot then call you :)

I did had a bad experience once when i jammed the rear brake hard. I did the snake, tango, salsa and many more till drop the bike.. luckily bike and me not seriously hurt..

Now what i do when i need to brake hard is that front brake pull hard but rear brake continous hard tap...

KNN thot all zzzz...... Ai guys u all should check out our dear bro Hangar18 band website!!! Im fxxking stucked, drool & eye glued to his band music....

Really grp of bad asses tat sounded damn gd on music!!!

 

Bro Damien got gigs im in!!! Butt dunno izit too old for headbanging...hehehe.....

 

Hey guys tink is gd to 'use' more of the front than rear brake yeah. I'm into front cos unless u install an aftmarket ABS for ur rear.... if not it is really easy to lock-up ur rear. And for yrs im using SBS NORMAL brake pads.... no wearing of the rotor & provide pretty gd braking power.

 

Any coffee session up & coming? Ok ok ok, pls for heaven sake let do it in the WEST!!! Bt.Timah?

 

Yahoo!!!! will be collecting my dream car tmr...a....powerful, BIG, handy...&...&.....is a Kangoo :puke: .... kekekeke
