  1. That is the intended plan. I have a few to try as soon as I get the hydraulic line and slave together.
  2. Got it mounted - fits great. The slave is supposed to be here this week. Then I can measure for the length of hydraulic line and get that ordered from Spiegler. I'll post picts when the slave is here
  3. Ok. First oh all I laughed my ass off because of the drastic differences in what appears to be a very similar test. All that comes to mind here is the fact that your toilets flush in a completely different direction than mine. The Simpsons tonight me that. Anyone else here with a theory.
  4. @dazzler24 Your video is tagged as private. Not sure why. All I did was upload to my rarely used YouTube channel. Then said I want to share, and “Copy Link” was an option. Copied and then pasted into our forum.
  5. Shot this to show how my rear seat goes in. stock Yamaha feet.
  6. All four. I’ll send some measurements later this week of my Bagster pan and the feet. What year is you FJ
  7. Oddly enough I had no issues with Bagster feet, other than the gap it created someone here pointed out to me. Then my ADD kicked in. Moving to Yamahas feet for me was only for esthetics and to calm my ADD.
  8. I believe I may be the first person to attempt to add this Brembo. I know Magura are all over the place (love that company, have Magura on my Scalple) but no one has fitted RCS 19 this to my knowledge.
  9. So far like a glove. I have the slave coming hopefully this wee, then I can measure and order a customer made hydraulic line. As you can see it fits the well with the stock control module next to it. This Brembo does not come with a switch, unlike the matching brake master cylinder. Still stewing on my three options there.
  10. Part one of my Brembo RCS 19 clutch install. So far all good.
  11. @dazzler24 230919NL0447/98-5355Z. Fits like a glove with the feet swap from stock. Both front and rear.
  12. Not at all in my case. I’m talking about the rear seat by the way. That was the gap issue. Absolutely no issues with the front straight out of the box. Add to that, the stock Bagster rubber feet are the weak link in this seat. They don’t fit well in the holes that secure them and have a lot of wobble. That all went away when I swapped with my stock feet. The materials used in the feet are noticeably different and the Bagster is much harder. Not complaining by any means. Just observing what I see.
  13. That’s the ticket. Just swap the feet of the original seat like I just did and not only does it fit better but no jostling to get it to snap in. Went on like butter. Someone tell Bagster there feet are to big. Big feet, if meat, I know. But not in this case. They were visibly different when the pan was identical to stock.
  14. @betoney for sure have some questions. Let me do more more due diligence before I ask. Seems like a lot of stock “gunk” coming out and a much simpler system going in.
  15. Curse you @norcal616 - I didn't need to know that I can put a Turbo on my FJ. Now I won't sleep.
  16. well I can tell you I have the Tracer seat on my FJ for what that's worth. Did the seat configurations change on these models?? Those are pretty drastic park number differences - I was think stitching would be a possible difference.
  17. See below comparison between Bagster and Sargent. I think the Bagster will set lower if needed it to by trimming 1/8" off the rubber feet.
  18. Just ordered the standard FJ-09 lines - Stoltec in PA - https://stoltecmoto.com/. 99.9% sure the main line down to the ABS manifold will work without issue from Spiegler. I have the stock lines on there now. I did need to "release" some slack from the line to the manifold to get it to fit, but nothing to cause alarm. and the Spiegler lines give some flexibility on grommet location which will help with the main line.
  19. @roadrash83 Did that very thing Sunday. Temps hit 48 and had a small opp to test not only the Bagster seat, but my Brembo master cylinder. Also had to get the STA-BIL mixed. Seat was exactly what I was looking for as far as fit and esthetics ( i too have a small gap under the rear as pointed out earlier today, but nothing that jumped out at me as odd. Got's to find someone to buy my Sargent now. The brake was awesome, not enough time to remotely give it a through test, but "no" comparison to stock. Spiegler lines coming tomorrow and hopefully complete this mod with the 320mm conversion. Yesterday we got 12" of snow and today it was 14deg F and salt everywhere - season in NY is officially over...
  20. I will say my back seat took some time to get on. It almost looks like you are not properly hooked u dear the rear two tabs.
  21. if you want to turn it off - hold the button in for 2 seconds - the TC will light up and stay lite. Bike has to be stationary (i believe) when turning on an off
  22. Also, no load on the a-arm so you “see” lots of jumping in that situation as slack should be close to 1.5”. My bike has never seen rain in 7,300 miles. That how I solve that problem 😀
  23. Mounted this beauty. Brembo Corsa Corta master cylinder. Found the mirror perch that was missing @betoney from the original and it all came together really nice. Reporting on this will be difficult. “Winter is Here”. Sitting on my new “Bagster” @wordsmith on the center stand in cold garage, brakes feel great. Seat feels even better. @texscottyd ride safe tomorrow. It’s only 41 here in NY.
