I am going to do braided SS brake lines (which I have had for over a year), flush mounts with the running light mod, and a C.A. integrated tail light. I have had all the stuff, but just haven't done it, yet...[&:]

they don't expand under hard braking. it suposed to giver your a more even response and better braking

I am trying to get mine start consistently, then riding it, haha.

I might do SS lines, among other mods that i want to do, but I am a bit lazy/poor. I did finally put frame sliders on the other day.

on your camaro you would really notice a diffrence on a bike thought i would think not. im guessing most guys on bikes do it for looks. i know when i had the f4i that thing stopped on a dime with out me have to press very hard.
