I posted this over on the Indianmotorcycles.net forum, thought I'd put it up over here as well:
Fellow Raximo users: do you find that the brake feel is softer with the Raximo compared to stock? It has always felt this way since I changed it... I assumed at the time that it was a poor bleed since the stock lever felt soft after getting it back from service before I changed them out. Today I bled the brake and it still feels about the same: sorta squishy.
Slightly more detail: I usually have the lever on "3" and if I squeeze the lever as hard as possible with two fingers and my ring and pinky fingers still on the grip, I can just about touch the tip of the lever to my knuckles (gloves on).
I suppose I could try to do some version of the brake lever clearance check written in the manual, but I'd have to think about the validity of the test using a different lever.
Thoughts?
