Sportcity brakes work!

Post by masterchop »

Not gonna lay blame as filtering is always a risk but I was filtering down a dual carriageway today and this guy just swung out right in front of me to turn and go the other way. I slammed on the brakes and did that wobbly skid thing but the bike stopped dead. The guy gave it a load of mouth and I called him a wanker. Still nice to know the dual front and single rear does its job.

One of my front discs was slightly warped but even then I thought they had really nice progressive feel with EBC organics in.

I've always liked the sportcity a lot.

Things I don't like is the way the panels fit together (or don't) and the shitty wiring.

Part from that there is nothing to dislike.

When there are problems with my bike I get pretty disheartened. Tend to fly off the handle a bit and just want rid. P.s my taillight assembly is on its way from AJ Sutton after 4 months of waiting. That's Piaggio service
