  • Re: Fuel Pressure

    Dragstar ...A little clearity here: The Fuel Pump has the capability to operate between 55-85 psi max without the FPR (fuel pressure regulator)...dead headed! Normal regulated system pressure is 47 psi to the injectors The pressure you have recorded is normal IMO I would suggest you check the integrity...

  • Re: Increase braking power

    Reza, not to be argumentative...The larger MASTER CYL bore equals more volume to the CALIPERS....hence less lever movement because of the increased displacement normally expressed in cubic inches or cubic centimeters. The down side is that the displaced fluid will not be at as high a pressure.....thus...

  • Re: Increase braking power

    Reza, yup....6 piston calipers have more cubic inches and also more force....need more fluid for displacement of pistons or brake lever will bottom out on handle bar i suspect. Probably 20mm bore is ideal balance for design of system. Remember more fluid is not more force! More fluid is only faster displacement...

  • Front Brake Hydraulics 101

    [quote user="wyomingwarrior"] Make sure you get the 11/16" for the dual caliper application. I looked at the same set (I think) but decided to go with the HHI control but in 9/16" cause I'm going down to a single caliper in the front. Here's a link for the one's I looked...

  • Increase braking power - 101

    Reza, As stated: Larger bore larger AREA = more fluid displacement less pressure to the caliper pistons & less stopping power. Smaller bore smaller AREA = less fluid displacement and higher effective pressure to the caliper piston & more stopping power. Longer brake lines/hoses will cause...

  • Brake Master Cylinder help - Some new & old thoughts to consider

    Use this Referenced Thread as a foundation for what follows: Front Brake Hydraulics 101 : One Foot Engineering based on the enclosed photo tells me that the JOKER MC has a shorter pivot point, Dim 'X', as well as reduced piston stroke which might explain their recommended applications for single...

  • Re: Opinions wanted on front break setup

    Here's a couple of single rotor WOM's .... midnight run & dberman .... swapping out the frt OEM MC (14mm) to a smaller bore size will improve the braking characteristics of the single rotor w/ the stock MC! The smaller bore size will increase the fluid pressure to the single caliper. As you...
