Yeh, it was too chilly to fully test the new rotors with the new Carbon Lorraine SBK pads but I'm expecting good things!

I'm glad she has toned down her need for pink.

That bike is too attractive to Barbie it up too much.

Have you used these before?

I usually run Carbone Lorraine on the race bike and have not found a better pad. Good things is an understatement.

Enjoy!

I can't see you pic, but sounds like a solid days work. I officially put mine away yesterday. Took her for a short ride, it was about 33* outside, changed oil, added stabilizer, and gave her a bath.

That exhaust looks awesome. Nice job. What about a set of black pazzos with pink adjusters?

That's not a bad idea! Someone mentioned shorties but that's out of the question. Newish rider. I have 3 sets of stock levers that should fit this bike so I may get a set powder coated pink to make her happy. Heck, I may just paint them and see how it looks. $2 and 15 minutes...

Newish rider? You can use all 4 fingers on Pazzo shorties easily, if that's the concern

Hmmm... well, I've never used them so I wouldn't know. She has kinda small hands too. At any rate, I'll certainly look into it and see what she thinks.
