Radial friggin brakes!
Radial brakes! Radial brakes! WTF!!! Can somebody tell me what the big deal is!!! I thought this was a racing feature only used so the racers could change their brake disc diameter for different tracks. Why does this get so much hype!!!

the calipers are subposed to be lighter and stonger to cut down on flexing and inconsistant braking. Anyway thats what i was told. I just think they look good! my old 12r brakes work fine for me .

Allot of things trickle down from race to the production bikes. Created by the manufactures for racing to advertise for up and coming sales .People see the latest (not always the greatest) and want it on there own bikes. The manufactures are always looking to lure us in.That's how they sell bikes.

Kawi would sell more bikes if they just had high-flying kickin' up some action Ninja commercials. And have give away prizes of Sidi boots with split-toes for the true Ninja effect.
Go Ninja, go Ninja, go Ninja, go!!!
