Hey Guys.
Well If I had any doubt as to the stopping power of the ZTL brake system, I sure don't any more. Wednesday afternoon on my way home from work I was a little tired and out of it, and having trouble staying alert. A van in front of me in the carpool lane had to do a panic stop. By the time I came out of my fog, I knew I was in deep do do, so I grabbed a big hand full of front brake. By the time I hit the back of the van, the bike was WAY up on the front wheel and I hit upside down and backwards with my backpack, ass, calves, and the heels of both feet. The bike took it in the fender, and fairing and a few other parts got rashed up.I just slid down the back of the now stopped van and hit the ground, with no rash at all. I feel very lucky, that the bike stood up, because if I hit it forks first, I think the bike and myself would be way more screwed up. Anyway, just wanted to let everyone that I am posting a list of the parts i'm looking for in the classified section, and would like you guys to take a peek when you get so time. Thanks , Chuck
