Hi All, a couple things I did were to throw away the PDWA switch ( the 
pressure differential switch), and went to 7/8 inch diameter rear wheel 
cylinders as opposed to the stock 3/4 inch ones. They can be had from most 
of the TR specialty shops.That put more braking to the rear. I also just put 
on Richard Good's dual MC setup; nice setup. Still tinkering with the 
balance bar setup.
    Several of our suppliers offer higher performance rear linings. Talk to 
some of them about their recommendations.
    I'm assuming you're using braided lines instead of hoses?
    My brakes worked well over the weekend at BeaveRun. Seems all the 
Triumph guys had fun.
Cheers, Bill Tobin
