was the geezer Craig Jones? think it was, ive seem him, he came over here his totaly mental. best thing ive ever seen. His sponered by Buell. He just goes into the local deealer and goes i want that one. The Buell dealer of here is a bit funny and was like no go away. so he rang buell up and they rang him and said if u dnt let him have when u cant have our contract. N e way at the end of the show he blew the engine up on purpose, it was class!!

My flat mate fitted braided hoses to his r6 and you can defiantley notice the difference.

However I've been doing stoppies on my NSR and ZX6, both of which have really spongey brakes, without much difficulty. Generally the brakes *do* have the power, braided hoses just seem to make it a bit more instant.

Yeah braided hoses definitley do make a difference, they dont flex like regular brake hoses so you get more feedback and more reliable breaking.

Worth the money for the posing factor aswell Smile

I think I saw this guy, was doing all kinds of stunts, then it showed some of his stunts that went wrong, some bloke fell off the front when he was doing a stoppie. Was riding a white Firebolt.
