| Are there any upgrades for the mediocre brakes on my '10 Vision 8 Ball?
To say they're lacking in response and bite is an understatement. That and the back brakes need bleeding again. WTF??
Better pads, Gold Wing caliber calipers and discs I don't know, just something better that doesn't make every red light such a chore
Thanks in advance,

Rossville, IL | Something sounds seriously wrong with the brakes. My ?09 will stop on a dime and pick it up. I do have to bleed the rear brake every so often, but it?s simple to do with the middle bleeder screw on the front caliper. I know I can fix it with the updated brake line, but it?s pretty pricey and brake fluid is cheap. I?ve tried Lyndal brake pads and others, but always go back to stock. I would suspect that either the linked rear brake isn?t bled correctly or someone replaced the rear pads and let the retainer clip slip out of position. When that happens, both pads don?t apply evenly on the rotor and it?s scary trying to get stopped. | |

| Thanks for the tip. I think there's a tire back under there somewhere, I'll get down and look. | |
