First Ride Out

Well took the old girl out for first time (for me) tonight. Well impressed with pulling power and handling. Only problem found on this run was a lot of popping from exhaust on overrun.

Trigger:
You will have a lot of popping with pods and they like a exhaust with back pressure. You can't have much front braking power with a small disc and a caliper that looks like its from a 400/4  ;)

Braking seems OK, but then again I am used to drum brakes lol. will have to look into that as front brake cylinder is seeping despite a new rebuild kit being installed. Wheel is 19 which I believe is larger than standard, Disc is 12 inch diameter is that needing to be larger? It does look smaller in the photo I must admit.

Johnwebley:
19 is the original size.
