I think the rear end is sexy. To each his own.

...the rear shot looks nice...the side view of the tail light lens looks fat (height-wise)....

I don't know why a cable has to give better feel than a good hydraulic system?

The Hydraulic system just feels dead compared to a cable. No mechanical feed back. If you think about it the cable is connected to the pressure plate fairly direct.

So do hydraulic brakes always feel dead?
Either way the remaining pressure after the springs is transmitted back up to the lever.
I don't see why it can't be done (retaining feel.) Won't happen with crummy lines though.

Well, If you compared them to something Non Hydraulic they would, but it would be impractical. Cable clutch has always been desired for racing.

Personally I would prefer the cable also but don't care a great deal on that point. I have never understood whining about clutch effort anyway.

When I was doing the ProStock car thing you wouldn't beliveve how many different clutch forks and cross shaft combos we had. Just trying to get an edge on clutch feel for the driver. If he can't feel it than it's hard to release it the same every time.

....next thing you know, electronic 'fly-by-wire' clutch actuation is here...y'know squeeze the clutch lever and computers do the rest....not be confused w/air-pressure-solenoid-switches....

...back to the rear end....twin CF or Ti cans tucked higher and closer would improve the asthetics...an undertail panel (if the stock is removable) that tapers to a point like on the '05 10R would really clean it up, especially when the license plate/mud flap is removed and the turn sigs are flushed....
