i was wondering if the gp tech handbrake was a good beginer handbrake or a waist of money???

 

if ur talking about the all in one thing. like its the clutch with the mastercylinder all in the same perch umm its really not bad. i was suprised when i tried it out on my friends bike that it actually pulls pretty hard. it was locking up the rear tire with one finger. the clutch lever sucks and kinda hurts ur finger but, if u wanna go cheap it aint that bad.

 

hanbreaks are a touch'e' subject on here i think the question is how much money you wunna spend??????

 

It's affordable and does work, I'm still learning coordination of clutch, HB and two finger grip. If I could move the clutch lever indepently of the HB to suit my grip and make it comfy I'd be happier. But I clutch it up and catch it with the foot brake then switch to the HB, and ride normal trying to use hb only, 2 finger grip doesn't feel good yet.

 

I have the gp adapter and a 06 GSXR master and it works pretty good, but I wouldnt trust it for off the peg coasters. its ok for circles and stuff tho.

 

thanks for the info ill get it in next week and ill see for myself

 

one more question how is the install is it a bitch or can i do easliy or do i have to take it to someone????

 

I bot one for my F4i with the clutch lever adapter, first thing I notice about the clutch adapter that fits over the reservoir cap it that it's all wrapped corners on top (except one) and fully 1/8" radiused all around the top smooth and sexy with their logo milled in big letters for marketing (fine), all sexy smooth and good. Then they made the lever about 5/16 thick with one 1/4" radius on the top far side of the lever, the other 3 sides are abrupt 90 corners scarcely deburred WTF (yeah I can already see that being uncomfortable). Ah maybe they were absent the day they taught part radiusing

I took the clutch lever off ground the corners of the other 3 edges off to about an 1/8 radius and buffed it out smooth. Feels much better:YEAH now to mount and use it.

I've been serching for F4i threads for moving the starter/kill/ignition switches, will someone please point me to them, I haven't found them yet
