TyrolSport Brass Bushings Group Buy

Hello,

I have a group buy going on right now for a full set of brass brake caliper bushings from www.tyrolsport.com on Nemini.org.

Retail price is currently $130 for a complete 2 axles setup (8 bushings + pins and snap rings). I have a few people interested on the other site and if we can get 10 people, TyrolSport has offered to give us a 15% discount which would make it $101 each since I would be able to pick them up (they are located in Brooklyn).

I have these bushings on my 2004 MCS and they make a world of a difference. Just recently installed them on my friend's 2005 MCS with otherwise completely stock brakes and he was so happy he ordered another set for his 2003 daily commuter MC.

Let me know if any of you are interested. I am thinking about putting together an install day as well.

Here is the link to the thread on Nemini:

I don't think they would fit the front but I do believe they would work fine on the back (since the rears remain stock).

Hey, what better way to compliment better braking power in the front by adding a bit of umph to the rear, eh?

Uh, don't think they add any "power" or "oomph," just better feel. And the front is really where it counts.
