New Fullthrottle cluch style handbrake set up. who's usein em with good results?

My bike is still in rebuild status but I bought one of the new style handbrakes to use on my new lsl DB kit but I havent got the bike back together to try it out yet or anything. Bill is a great guy to do business with and talked me into the new kit verses the old one but Ive heard nothing good bout em. What experiences u guys had ?

Im pondering contacting bill and trying to swap out for the old style kit cuz I destroyed my bike last year due to a **** brake set up and Im just now got it about dun 10X better bike than b4. I just dont want to rebuild agin so extensively.

 

Oh and for the record Bill and Fullthrottle inc is a great company Ive bought many of parts off of em many suggested by Bill himself with no complaints ever:YEAH

 

have you been hiding under a rock for a few months?????????????????

 

Havent really hear **** bout em exept when they first came out
Yes I searched! but I got convinced to buy one bout 2 monthes ago just havent got the finishing touches to my bike done yet 2 see what its all about.

Hell all Ive heard bout the last 2 months is hohe

 

The reason I decided to throw this post up was due to a concern after reading KOS results and hearin bout someone eatn it cuz of the same set up.

 

Its a great concept... but heres what ive seen lately... i bought it from someone who used it an hour. that guy sold it to me... i used it an hour then sold it..the guy i sold it to doesnt want to use it and now hes selling it.... Jason britton has been riding at the local spot around here... and his is gone too.. brembo stock is now going back up

 

I dont like the price tag..........$405..............

 

I was able to finally put mine to 3 days of hard core use @ KOS....

All i'm gonna say is it works and it takes getting used to....

 

its not the price thats bad when u take in to account that u dont have to buy anything else cuz it come with the lever and its own master............its just that its a POS!!


magura 13mm :YEAH

 

I use it with no problems

I like how sensitive I can make it....no probe with me but then again I'm a "pro" & am sponsored by bill, so that must be why it works so well for me! LOL

 

its rider choice, you could go either way and spend about the same buying a dual caliper setup! i run a hohey setup and love it, and i know people who are runnin tap-ins and love em to

 

I use the Full throttle tap bolt and it works great. I havent heard much about the new model and never seen one in person, Im def intrested tho.

 

i have it....i did like it and possibly still do but after i get rid of all this rash. I did have a real hard time bleeding it to get it to be solid but after bleeding it many times it felt good. Without writing a novel, i will say this....I had it on my bike and it worked fine all day and then all of a sudden i notice the hb was getting mushier, not a work but **** it. I decided to go out and just try a few sit down circles and stoppies. After ripping up a top of 2nd gear coaster did i realize the bleeder screw on the master came loose and left the bike resting ever so gently cage first on my head sliding down the track at kots. So for me, pro's about it is it works nice and feels good similar to a brembo(i've never had an actual 16x18 on my bike but i have used some on others bikes before) con's: don't really like how it controls your whole entire breaking system, reason i really like the idea of the hohey dual caliper setup. I realize wrecking was my fault due to not re-checking the bike before i went out to ride but just trying to give some of the views of someone that is not sponsored by them, wish i were though hahah

 

You get alot for that price.. Master plus 2 steel braided lines, and the $105 asv lever.. Great concept. #2 has that right now and I know it was a bitch for him to get bled. He's still tweaking. not sure what he thinks of it yet

 

No offense to full throttle but never could trust a single caliper out back. I'll always run dual caliper.

 

Chuck I still need u to do that front end swap on my 750 4 me I should have the $$$ in the next few weeks.PM me your # agin I lost it.

The whole reason 4 this post was to find out if this thing will be reliable enuf to surpass my learning curve. Im kinda leary of it and tryin to decide if im even gonna run it. cuz ive dumped a **** ton of $ in my shitbox to make it a bitchen stuntbike.

Thanx for the imput guys Id be glad to hear more

 

I have one and i like it alot

 

Yea I'll take that as sarcasim

 

Anyone know if you can still get the billet masters from FTI? I dont know if they even made them for my gix Ive only seen em on 636 & F4I

 

i got one for an 05 gixxer ill sell for 100$ with the linesFTI master not the tap version
