Its funny you say that cuz I dont think I have used the dam thing once. Thanks for the props.

Loved my crossroads. Combined with Firebolt pegs it was the perfect riding position for me.

 

[nitto12ss]

Loved, as in past tense? what happened?

 

[TechMagic]

I love the whole bike, but damn those bars are hot. I'd love to get the black anodize ones. Can you recommend a source for them?

 

[only1reds]

Where did you get the clear brake lens from? Nice looking bike, I'm loving it.

 

[nitto12ss]

Techmagic, I go the crossroads used on ebay, But Americansportbike.com sells them.

only1reds, the lens is made by Clear Alternatives, but I got it used off of ebay. I think new it will run you about $40 dollars.

I've always liked the look of that front break reservoir. Did it improve anything? Shouldn't you have high pressure hose coming immediately off of it? Excuse my ignorance if it already is.

How do you like the front rotor? Any improvements there?

You will like the look even more once my ASV levers arrive.

I was able to use the stock brake line and banjo bolt with no problems. Performance wise this was probably one of the best "bang for the buck" mods I have done to the bike. I bought a used Nissin 3/4" Radial master off of a 2005 ZX6R for around $50, and that was the only expense.

As for the rotor it is mainly for looks, but it dose resist brake fade better when I am in the twistys.

here is the DIY write up I did on the master.


Brake upgrade

 

[dave_xb12r]

Hey Nitto, you should remove the CA charcoal canister.

I Like your bike, the personal touch is great.
