when I bought Silly Neck's 04 636 he had one on there. He made a custom bracket for it. took it off after the first session cuz it was overkill for me.

 

In my opinion 4 piston dual caliper is the way to go, some people say they are an overkill but for higher speed i think it gives you a lot more feedback and confidence.

 

And what makes you think that?




you really HAVE NO IDEA what you are missing out on.

 

i have tried a dual caliper set up.... i didnt think it was anything special...
in fact i like my brembo with an adapter better...

i think its jus how well its bled...
i have a pinched line an i still love my set up...
we all know if theres any air in there at all its not gonna work right...
so ya i think sic j is right..
dual caliper with brembo... on scott stunts bike didnt feel any better then mine in power or feel... but his engine runs better!
hahaha

 

dude people get way too into this handbrake ****.

USE WHAT WORKS FOR YOU!!!

and everyone stop trying to convince everyone else that x is better than y!!!

you have a review, post your pro's and con's (thank you j)

but don't get butthurt when someone say that their x setup is better than your y setup.

and don't say your's is better than someone else's just say that you prefer your particular setup over any others.

that is my for today.

in the infamous words or kyle BBBBRRRRRRAAAAAAPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!

 

the only reason i see a point to run that much hb is if your running about 8k idle.

 

so are you saying that it's just like any other handbrake setup OR could you set up the adjustment to be even stronger if you wanted to??? How do you like the feel of a "cable" lever?

I was looking at this product for a while, and I would buy this setup if it gives me more brake power than my actual setup, but no way I would spend the money and time for something that will work "just as good" as what I have right now.

 

Maybe the one you tried wasn't bled correctly.....


sorry had to do it.... but if you think about it, it's the same thing.


I know how to bleed brakes very well... I bled mine VERY WELL, a couple times... and it still sucked (new FTI that is).


No... i tried it and it is only "just as good" as what you have now if not worse.

Again:

Not trying to sell anything to anyone or convince anyone my setup is better.... just offering a lil help for those that want it.

 

ROCK ON.......
hahaha

i prefer to drag my foot on the tire...:YEAH

hand brakes are soOo last year!
hahahahahhaha

 

haha maybe that's why you keep breaking your bike

 

everyone has their own preference in how much braking power they like. as i stated before, if the rear wheel locks up without a problem, than i feel its plenty of power. thats how the FTI is. i have it set on the 4th setting. as for the feel of the "cable", it feels just like any other handbrake.

also, as i said before in other threads, i needed to buy another HB cuz i sold my old HB with my bike. so i was in the market for another one anyways. i like the feel of the new FTI and feel it has plenty of power for me. plus ill never have to buy another HB again.

 

are you running a 2 or 4 piston? if you seriously feel the need of having "that much braking power" and youre running a 2 piston, then i could tell you the same thing, your 2 piston is garbage.

its all personal preference.

And to clarify things, if i had a choice of the new FTI or an adapter with radial master, i would choose the FTI.

 

ummmmm that makes no sense..... you dont need as much braking power for high speed stuff. its called engine brake. learn to use it.

 

Ummm.... single piston OEM setup here.. I don't know of a 2 piston setup?

I am running the 1 piston, stock f4i rear caliper....

It feels great and dosen't have the 1 pump/2 pump/half pump delay and reverse 1 pump that FTI has...... it is consistant all the time.

I will not even touch on why I sent the FTI back.... but it was basically because it did not stand up to the regular SINGLE PISTON dual caliper setup.

And just FYI..... I have tried the FTI original..... the FTI superduty adapter.... the gptech adapter...... the HOHEYDESIGNS original 4piston design.... the HHD single piston dual caliper....... and the FTI 2nd generation.


I've settled on the single piston.... and it works great for what I do.



I have no reason to lie...... I have NO sponsors and I DO NOT work for any comany.

SO take all any any advice w/ a grain of salt.....

 

ok.... 16 mm front master is made for single 4 piston caliper.
13mm master is mad for single piston caliper.
what could work beter??????
FTI is made for? if your running it on a 636 your going to have difering feelings then somone on a f4i...

basicly the FTI just complicates things!!!!
master line bracket caliper..... dosnt get any more basic then that
and i will stick to my dc.... 15 min to bleed an install....
not 1 hour to install and 3 days to bleed

and kj is one of the ONLY people on this site that isnt a broke *** little kid.... and spends his money and trys EVERYTHING......
some people should shut the **** up and get off bills nutts and listen to some one who got this ran it (understands hydrolics) and gave a review....
this weekend i met up with a guy who was running it and he asked me how he could get a dc.....
he said it took him hours to bleed and it was still sponge..... stick with what works!!!!!

 

Engine braking isnt going to help you if your way past balance point.

 

I would say that everyone that buys a Brembo Master cylinder or runs Michelin Pilot power front tire is a also Bandwagon Jumper. This statement might be little bold but considering that people who rock power whellies rave about the Brembo and people that cant stoppie more that 30 feet say that the Pilot power is the best front tire ever. That is one of the main problems with Stuntlife... Yes both are good products and I believe that there are many better master cylinders and tires out there. That being said I would say that most of this handbrake nonsense is very meaningless because it all comes down to what kind of handbrake will fit the riders style the best so there is no reason to bash on the Ho Hey or the FTI. They are both great products.

supercorsa!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

how do you think people scraped without handbrakes back in the day, engine brake will bring you back if you kno how to use it

 

oh yea, learn how to use the clutch too. Now SERIOUSLY, stop posting.

Colton, that's what I've been saying the whole time.

KJ, refer to Coltons post. Haha
