Re: RVF400 2010 Carbon Build.
In all honest, they are no better than Brembo, a lot of adjustment, but some times this is not a good thing, you cant tell if brakes are crap or is just set up wrong, took a while to get brakes to "feel" like the Brembo does out the box, looks wise they look million dollars. Hi bought them of another member about 4 years ago and got than for a good price, I would have to think twice about paying top dollar new price, top quality but Swedish engineering does not come cheap. If for racing go Brembo, If is looks and bling with Brembo quality go ISR, hope that helps.

Ok, thank you for the answer. I'm using brembo and quite happy. But for look, of course, I'm agree - ISR looks futuristic....

Any Pics?
Is it an 'RVF' ohlins? Or a modified one meant for another bike. Would really love to get my hands on one.

Ohlins is a modified Blade shock, bought from Kais, is the 4th one they have done for me now.
Bell Andy at Kais, very good but not the fastest in the world, but worth waiting for.

Let him know I have put you and should sort you a good price.

Re: RVF400 2010 Carbon Build.
Well, should have been running today but had issues with another bike, and no fuel light so lost a couple of hours
But did get some pics done and fit the Rick Oliver Rear Disc.

Hope to have running tomorrow then just need body work and we are done!!
