Those previous gens were a bear to spoon on. I spoiled myself with PR5s this time around and not only were they super easy to spoon on, they are dreamy to ride. Boy does that pricetag sting. Maybe I'll go T32s next time and use the zip tie method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still have the T31s but the rear was a bear Except I have my own NoMar Classic and Handy Lift I bought in 95 when they were reasonable 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, pricing varies wildly, and availability through covid has been a nightmare. On 6/22/2021 at 4:58 AM, bikelee said: Any tip over protection recommendations for my 2021 Tracer GT ? Will parts from previous years fit ? Thanks for any help I don't know for sure, but I'm 99% sure that you'll need crashbars for the 21+ models and that old ones won't fit. The engine and frame both are new. It's *REMOTELY* possible that the engine mounts are in exactly the same locations and nothing has been moved to be in the way, but unlikely. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garybinnyc Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 Installed Rizoma touring foot pegs.. they were on back order for more than two months, by the way any thoughts on if these are correct or on backwards? They mount fine in other direction (no L or R indicator anywhere) but I feel like the wider part of the pegs should be in the back in the smaller in the front, looks more aerodynamic this way but welcome any input 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not substentially... but I felt a change, hard to say if it's just the lines alone, or the pads too... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I changed my lines to braided I already had HH pads on the front and am of the opinion that I definately had a firmer front brake feel. The rear not so much but no real surprise there I guess. Having said that I did a very thorough bleed of the system at the same time which may have contributed to the final result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member 2and3cylinders Posted June 25, 2021 Premium Member Share Posted June 25, 2021 I always install braided lines, and never not felt an improvement. HH + pads will be a revelation for you too, as the OEM pads are mundane GG compound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
