can you snap a pic of how your rear shocl reservoir and hose is routed?   My LSR has a little cross brace by the front seat mount and its right in the way of my hose.  at least the way I think its supposed to be routed

I thought the pumashine coil mounts were discontinued?  Mine is a hot mess, held in place with zip ties.  coil where stock one is, cdi where stock one is.  but its made it through several MX and arenacross races. 

I need to install my zeel anyway

if you go to a national MX race, all the pros have been running these for a few years and it trickles down to most of the A class guys and some B class as well.  what i was told was instead of just an on/off type application of the front brakes, these do a much better job of modulating the amount of braking at incremental lever positions.  Not sure if true or what the point would be since the later and harder you brake the faster your lap times. 

aka "Jumps for show, corners for dough"

I've been tempted to buy one, but havent pulled the trigger. I believe both Wienen racing and hetrick racing are dealers and have suggestions of which options to use.

Brian's comments are interesting about the origins of the hinson cover.  it a couple hundrend bucks more, but with all the issues Brian pointed out, not sure why you wouldnt just get a modquad clutch cover these days?  I guess  everyone wants a vintage build to sit in their garage instead of racing them with modern tech

i get the feeling that once impounded, they destroy them.  Dont bother to check vins if stolen and try to get them back to rightful owner.  Wasnt there a video going around of New York or some big city, running a bulldozer over impounded bikes and quads a couple years ago?
