The most powerful part of your motorcycle is not the engine - it's the brakes. That's a fact! Consider this - A GSX-R1000 can do a standing quarter mile in 10.8 seconds with a terminal speed of 138mph - the brakes can do the same amount of work, but in reverse, in just 6.8 seconds - and by fitting HEL Performance Stainless Steel Brake Lines you can make them even more powerful.
