    New front rotor and pads making a clicking noise

    That's very interesting. My circle pins won't budge with my fingers but they do feel oily from the factory. I'll keep a watch on any movement but I'm thinking it would probably occur after the break in period...I'm thinking it might even take a full skidding stop before they would turn. Well...

    New front rotor and pads making a clicking noise

    Hey all I got my new EBC rotor and HH pads on the front wheel and it looks pretty good. I've been breaking it in slowly with no hard braking yet but every time I use them they make the clicking noise. Anyone go through this? Will it go away? I hope so

    What brand of brake pads and when to replace rotors?

    I have a 2005 busa and never had to change the pads so I need help getting them off. I checked the rotors and the rear is 3.5 mm thick. The manuel says the front can't be less than 4.5 and it's 4 mm. So I guess I'll need rotors unless the minimum isn't that critical?

    Air compressor switch

    Thanks guys...I still need to get back to it being busy lately. Robert, you meant without a fuse, the switch becomes the weakest link? I guess if that's the case I should stick with the same one if I dont get a fuse.... And about the pressure switch.. good suggestion, I did that with my fan...

    Hmm, extra chrome fasteners after installing cowlings.

    Still haven't looked for them again. They are the small ones. Strange that I couldn't find them. I'll look again when I get a chance. I did seriously look for them with flashlight....I will also re-look at the manual. I haven't had much time lately but weekend is calling my name. Nice to be a...
