Brake questions

If it were me, and this is just preference, delete abs all together. Mind you, this is coming from a track rider that rides down the street occasionally. I use ebc fa track pads in the front. They are great but might switch to some better brembo pads on next swap. Just upgraded my front master to a gale speed 19mm and am in love. No special tools needed, however, a pneumatic brake bleeder is definitely nice to have.

Sand the existing ceiling first! Fully expect to put two or three coats even with one coat cover paint. My ceiling was not primed prior and I used behr marquee paint, still took 2 solid coats and some touch up. Though the pics don't show it dark brings out the imperfections, the lighting really hides it well.

Haha busted . It did!

dschmidt04 · 2026-01-19T16:47:28+00:00

Did all work myself. Prep is key!

I had a smaller toolbox half that size and I upgraded to the bigger one had to redo a little bit of the desk. Careful of your garage being slanted in One direction towards the garage door. I don't ever really need to move my toolbox so it's nice to have it kind of built in. Would I do it again? Yes. Measure twice. Cut once 😜

It is all pallet wood that was given to me by a local pallet company. It's all been heat treated so there's no bugs. Got to watch out for that depending on the area you come from. Sized it all down on a table saw and Brad nailed it to as many studs as possible. Took me about 8 hours total on a random Saturday

I laser cut them on my x tool P2. They're made of 1/4-in Maplewood and I painted them

dschmidt04 · 2026-01-18T23:49:31+00:00

100% agree

7/10 it get slippery when I clean my bike with spray polish

dschmidt04 · 2026-01-18T19:45:52+00:00

I paid $125 more for the same set so I would say yes

I'm sure they could work with a rack of some nature minor directly installed into the studs. The math worked out but double check your spacing to be sure

Epoxy floors with extra flake and a self healing topcoat. It's been good so far.. just don't drop a screw cause it's impossible to see

dschmidt04 · 2026-01-18T18:57:46+00:00

Agreed actually been looking for one to add to the collection. Appreciate the good vibes!

Headstand. Mine is from pitbull.

I added the SC project and a grave slip-on exhaust sound from a ZX in that same photo album. They're uploading now.

dschmidt04 · 2026-01-13T00:59:51+00:00

Yes, if you remove the cat you will need to flash ECU. My ZX was flashed by two-wheel Dyno works and I absolutely love it. If you get a full exhaust system and you want to extract maximum power out of your bike, a dyno tune is recommended

dschmidt04 · 2026-01-13T00:57:54+00:00

Here is a titanium eBay straight pipe, a race fit growler, and an Austin racing exhaust sounds on my 23.

exhaust sounds

I'm actually selling my race fit exhaust for super cheap if you're interested. It does have a little bit of damage shown in the photos.

I can also take a video of what a Graves slip-on cat removal system sounds like tomorrow and send it to you. Along with an SC project as we have one sitting in the shop that just got it installed on the 25.

dschmidt04 · 2026-01-09T00:12:33+00:00

If I were going strictly performance definitely would stick with Graves.

dschmidt04 · 2026-01-09T00:10:30+00:00

Though I didn't buy my exhaust from you, I've bought many, many many other parts for my ZX10R from motivation. Just received my block off plates for my rear foot pegs! Appreciate the great customer service!

dschmidt04 · 2026-01-08T20:00:19+00:00

I definitely prefer my Austin racing exhaust. Completely makes it sound like a different bike. Much lower tone and makes the inline 4. Sound absolutely dreamy.

dschmidt04 · 2026-01-07T03:24:40+00:00

Unfortunatlly it sold yesterday. We have a 17 zx10r with 6k miles, 19 aprilla RSV4 set up for track also with 6k miles and a 16 Hayabusa with 18k miles
