    Home-tuning a Breva V1100 etc

    Am I correct in the following generalization about throttle sync: The adjusting screw on the left end of the link rod is mainly for balancing at around 3000 rpm, and the air bleed screws are mainly for balancing at idle? Got a Carbtune manometer and a VDSTS, and did the procedures. It seems...

    (Breva 1100) Front Wheel, brake rotors

    Indeed. Worked great. Got the disks off, loosened the bobbins so they can be rotated. This now allows the braking surface ring to shift/float. Then I cleaned the braking surface with brake cleaner thoroughly. Reassembled using Loctite and correct torque. Test ride produced a big smile, I...

    (Breva 1100) Front Wheel, brake rotors

    Well the good news is that I didn't have to resort to heat/flames to get the wheel and a disc off. Got some proper tools, an impact driver and hex (allen) bits instead of the allen wrenches. Not a problem anymore. Going to try and loosen the bobbins somewhat, and carefully clean the braking...

    (Breva 1100) Front Wheel, brake rotors

    If that is the whole assembly, Snowflake 'frame' + buttons + braking surface all put together, not just the braking surface alone, I'm interested! ... I'd always suspected that! Kind of hard to avoid when you have to stop on a hill, but otherwise a great tip. Will try that, but after detecting...

    (Breva 1100) Front Wheel, brake rotors

    Man, what a helpful bunch! Thanks! :D Talking with TrueDisk in Carleton MI, ( http://www.site.truedisk.net/ ) they've been indicating they can resurface the discs. I asked if I needed to remove the actual braking surface part from the floating 'frame' and they said no. I even sent a link to a...

    (Breva 1100) Front Wheel, brake rotors

    (Breva 1100)The problem I'm trying to remedy is brake pulsing, especially at lower speeds approching full stop. It has finally become annoying enough to take action. I checked out all the 'floating rivets' but am now convinced they're not the problem. Using a makeshift 'dial guage', I can...
