Product design instructions were unclear.

The most popular president ever?

They build it shite from the factory. You need to extend the swingarm to corner at top speed. Can't steer with the front off the ground.

Pulsing brakes on anything is almost always a warped rotor. But wait for those two to speak up before you order a set.

While we wait I would check the floaters and make sure they still float, and don't float too much.

I would also clean the rotors, hit them with a Scotch Brite pad.

I was getting it on my 3rd straight rotor when I found one of my caliper bolts was bent.(by the PO, fork end had scratches too) Seems like that would be a constant grind but that was the last thing that finally fixed it. More of a frequency than alignment thing }shrug{

Also not a bad idea

any pics for non instagrammas?

Check how low the oil sump is unloaded(@the kickstand). I going to have to stop over a speed bump and see the clearance.  

The busa got electronics since this thread started.

I've been impressed with Carbone Lorraine XBK5 pads.

My Brembo monoblocks came with Galfer pads but I'll probably swap to CL before I wear them out.

I was almost set on those as availability for my year is slim for the Vesrah fronts. But then "some guy" on 13x says

"for the record I'm currently on Carbone Lorraine XBK5 and they leave much to be desired......for the street." 

I ordered the vesrah rears as those seem harder to get in the sbs or SC.

What kind of brake feel are you looking for? Are you looking for a progressive pad or one that has an initial bite?

I don't know if I've ever held the lever steady enough for long enough to feel any relative  progression in my braking power. Looking for the strongest street pads that are consistent in all weather, 

here are the ST.
