Re: gp tech hb sucks donkey nuts
Sounds kike user error to me.
I've had like 4 of them of 4 different bikes and they've all worked good. Locks up the rear tire with 1 finger no problem.
And I'm still trying to figure out why people complain that they can't use the foot and the HB at the SAME time. When the hell do you ever need to use both of them at the SAME time?!?!

Re: gp tech hb sucks donkey nuts
i have always used the gp adapter, with a r1 master on all of my bikes, and it works great! you need to bleed your **** better, or get a better master!
Re: gp tech hb sucks donkey nuts
i got the full throttle set up on my drz and both foot and hand work at same time. and the brake just hits sooner. i dont have to pump before one or the other works. and i have enough stopping power that i can clutch it up from a dead stop and kill the bike with my hb
p.s. this is the adaptor set up with a nissin master cyclinder. and stainless braided line.

Re: gp tech hb sucks donkey nuts
i got the gp tech set up right now with a 1000RR radial master but i wanna go to a daul cal set up. do i have to get another stock 636 caliper or can i just use a caliper off one of my old 600RRs for the second caliper?
(regular dual cal set up. not the four piston)

Re: gp tech hb sucks donkey nuts
but why would you not
Re: gp tech hb sucks donkey nuts
only reason i was asking is cuz i have a few 600RR cals laying around that i thought i might be able to use. or were you asking why i wouldnt go with the 4 piston set up.
i should prob just go with the 4 piston set up if im gonna switch to dual cal huh?
Re: gp tech hb sucks donkey nuts
i know im new to stunting but i practiced my ahole off this weekend i didnt have the money to get a dual caliper kit so i went with the gp tech kit..... that thing sucks donkey nuts for beer money... if u use the foot brake u have to pump up the hand brake for it to even work... and everytime i got it near 12 it wouldnt do nething........ just venting and pissed that i didnt get the dual caliper setup...... which setup should i go with wen i can afford it
i sell adapter and everyone that have sold one to NEVER has this problem (of course i am speaking for my adapters, not GP Tech's).
Re: gp tech hb sucks donkey nuts
To the thread creator, learn to bleed your brakes, thats your problem. No pump up on mine, EVER. Not even between, you can give it a foot full of brake, grab the hand brake its rock hard, and let off hand brake and go right back to foot brake.
or you could put a hose clamp around it and never have a problem.
I've seen just as many FTI problems as GP tech problems...
I've had a gp tech setup for over 2 years, as well as a few of my friends
As long as you put a hose clamp around it, no problems
but in all honesty, I'd ask stock05 if he still sells hand brake adapters.. way cheaper then gp tech and FTI!
GP tech adapters have this problem because they are only held in by the factory circlip... Get a FTI (FullThrottleInc.net) SCREW IN adapter and you will never have these problems again... bonus is that all you need is the adapter, all of your lines ETC will work with it... oh and make sure you are using a quality, stunt tested/approved master like a 600/1000RR or R1 or brembo...

Re: gp tech hb sucks donkey nuts
I had the gp tech set with the square resivior and had bleeding issues/lag between foot and hand. The problem was a little air in/around the adapter and foot master it squishes when you pump the brakes. I finally solved the problem by tying the caliper up by the seat and un bolting the rearset so I could rotate it and pump the the last bubbles out, then good to go. But the HB master I didn't care for.
