Full throttle is cheaper and comes with the 80 inch line and crush washers.

Re: Is HoHey Dual Caliper setup worth it?

either way if you go with FT or HH it is definitly a must, independent braking will let you go from foot brake to hand brake without the little pump needed to fill the rear res before using the hand brake. Plus if you wreck and you brake your rear set you can just take it off and run with the hb the rest of the day!!

How much better are they then the double H's? i've never used anything but them, didn't think there was that much difference.. can you explain the power difference?? ( not being a smart ***, i seriously just don't know ) with alittle more explaination then it just stops better.

HH's dont "float" very well they bite on and off in my opinion. plus they are annoying as ****!!

you should notice quite a difference, your not forcing fluid through a second master. you should have ( should ) a much better feel for the brake, not just pull real hard and hope. you will have to be alittle lighter on it then your used to, ride around on it before you start using it in the wheelies

Re: Is HoHey Dual Caliper setup worth it?

whats more worth it is the FTI setup for under $200....includes a line...all you need is to ebay some front calipers.

just put the dual quad FTI bracket on my bike and i still have a boner the thing is so awesome! cheap, easy, works fantabulous!

be carefull with 4 pistons on a rotors, they throw a lot of heat and if your rotor is not high quality material, it will warp....stock rotors or galfer rotors are made from the good stuff!

either way you need a DC...i fought against them for awhile...boy was i stupid! lol
