But now it's too busy with EICMA (International Bike Expo in Milan).
So..... I must to wait.... :roll:

BTW have you ever had a look at your inlet reed valves? Maybe there is something wrong.

Hi guys! :D

I think that finally my APTS exaust valve it's ready to go, with a better setting. :mrgreen:

And about brakes:
- front brake, now it's good (I divided in two Ferodo brake pad, for a better fit on the disk); *thumb*
- rear brake.... well... when I reassembled it, I put grease on the shaft of the pump and this has partly emulsified in the brake circuit.... :roll: :roll: :roll: *oh* *oh* *oh*
(I cleaned all and I replace DOT4 brake oil in circuit!).... now it's good too! :mrgreen:
