no anti-lock breaks...most likely and nearly only possiblity is wheel chatter/hop...also happens when you downshift in high rpm's without pre revving the motor


chainstretcher...do the bikes already have the back torque limiters on them...i wasn't sure if they were starting to be released with this technology yet or not...i haven't read many new or recent motorcycle magazines yet...i know that bmw is starting to release it in their new M series sport touring cars


idealy this would reduce the need to pre rev the motor while down shifting and reduce/eliminate rear wheel chatter under deceleration...all be it more wear on the clutch pack

 

I think that they do have that. I know that my Busa did and it was an '01 -- Honda is usually about 5yrs ahead of everybody else techwise. Don't have the ability to downshift without revving - tried it a couple of times but my right hand betrays my brain. On the Busa I only did it a couple of times in emergency situations. Makes a Gawd-awful noise coming through the clutch.
