It is the BRP CanAm Spyder. It uses a brake system designed by Hayes Brakes Wed, 08 Jul 2009 18:47:05 GMT Mitch Casto http://groups.yahoo.com/group/tilting/message/13750 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/tilting/message/13750 Hi all, you might enjoy this video of Feet Forward motorcycles ( as compared to common Head Forward motorcycles).

Firstly the distance travelled per rev is calculated from Wed, 08 Jul 2009 16:00:28 GMT Alan Braggins http://groups.yahoo.com/group/tilting/message/13746 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/tilting/message/13746 ... It would have to be quite a small fat tyre for that much, surely? ... Surely the significant thing to ABS is the difference between wheel speeds, not the Wed, 08 Jul 2009 14:48:54 GMT Mitch Casto http://groups.yahoo.com/group/tilting/message/13745 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/tilting/message/13745 Hi everyone, just wanted to let you know that there's quite a few pleasant, but brief videos on YouTube about Anti-Lock Braking (ABS) and Vehicle Speed Sensors
