manky shock dropped off to the Woodmans cottage - Funny I couldn't see an axe or fallen tree anywhere

put the rebuilt shocky in yesterday arvo and went for a test ride down the appleby river. Seems ok so far, although the bike seems a bit tailhappy on gravel, possibly it has some dampening now.
Btw Padmei, that manky shock you loaned me is about an inch shorter. Was it off a Tengai?
And if anyone doubts that a braided front brake line is any good, well doubt no more. Friggen amazing transformation, I almost binned it when pulling up behind a car at the Richmnod roundabout, pulled on the brakes like usual and the front wheel locked up. Almost nasty.
Happy with my brakes now, may have to change my riding style to incorporate them.

Yeah, Yeah, Cary fitted a braided line to his XR650R and you can't stop him raving about it!! Braided this braided that! So even tho the 640A has awesome brakes I thought to myself that maybe these braied cables might be the go?? Lo and behold the KTM already has these new fangled cables!! Bonus!! I suppose that's why KTM's are the best??
Way back in the day when I owned a "sports bike" A VFR1000R I fitted braided lines to that and what a difference they made slowing that 250kg beast down from warp speed.
