i didn't mind maxima, as long as it's applied to a hot chain, as with all waxes it worked well. getting it out of the can however was not so good, i bought 3 cans and all of them i threw away with at least half the contents still inside, i now use TORCO and it's great.

we must be using different products Bazz....I got no fling...but the amazing thing was on bikes and bicycles (mine was 2nd hand) application (like the Chris's CA cycleworks video) cleaned the chain and lubed....and the more often you use it the cleaner the drivetrain would get....I've turned noisy grundge encrusted Campagnolo (Italian bicycle components) drivetrains into jewel like silent efficient shifting mechanisms just by using it for a few weeks and lubing every 100k (which is normal for a bike) and 500k for the motor assisted vehicle.

I've used Belray stuff (suspension oil) and know how good that is too!

Anyone know what size Rizoma brake/clutch cups to use? There are four to choose from: 20ml, 26ml, 27ml, 35ml. What the!??

I used the 27ml for the clutch and the 37 for the brake.

the brackets that are supplied go between the mirror stalk and the brake lever body.

the reservoirs come with different diameter output funnels (2.5mm allen key I think to screw them in...with a little grease I think)

If I had my time again...and I will!.....I'd do two of the 27 ml reservoirs with side ports.

and don't overfill them....you end up with brake fluid everywhere! and grease all the threads too.

Thanks spider.

Why would you go the two 27ml instead of the larger 37?

*oh, can anyone else say if there is a problem by having a smaller brake reservoir?*

cause both of the sizes are a LOT less than the stock reservoirs if memory serves me....and after changing braking / clutch was same as always/before.

(it was the pads that changed the braking! WHOA!)

anyway.....I sent you an email.

Put reservoirs are great....I always thought the stock ones looked like urine containers....every time I rode I kept needing to go to the toilet  Smiley
