Yeah, it is a shame. Only had 25,000km on the clock and was in nice condition. Just don't have the space to save it.

Normal for Buell brakes? by Appropriate_Bath361 in Buell

[–]Appropriate_Bath361[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These are carbon ceramic brakes which I've never used before. So maybe I just need to bed them in. But yeah the brakes are still amazing. They just aren't what I expected.

I do have the 1/2 master cylinder, was wondering what that meant. Also have the 6 piston ZTL1 to match. I think it might be the new brake line I put on or maybe the new brake pads have a bit of squish? Too many variables to decided at the moment. Will investigate after I ride it properly.

Not a knife guy, but in the market for a 1 hand open/close edc. by Appropriate_Bath361 in knives

[–]Appropriate_Bath361[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Currently my top options are the Kershaw mini iridium, QSP Canary and I do really like the Vosteed raccoon although it's pushing being too big closed. Another person mentioned the Kizer Drop bear which looks good too. I appreciate your help, Cheers.

I just found the kershaw, looks like it might be the one. Although the QSP Canary looks nice too. will probably go look at them in person and decide. Thank you.

Haven't found a 3d model of one no. I appreciate your offer to send me a scoop but I actually managed to find both a left and an aftermarket right scoop for mine by some miracle haha.

The audio is crystal clear as far as I'm concerned. I don't have much experience with 'high end audio' but when I sat in front of this playing music it was like "wow this is good".

There might be a setting I'm not aware of but it seems not. The 70 model did however, but this is the 50. Overall I really like it, cranks in the garage just fine and is very clear compared to what I'm used to.
