The MRS' 1125r has gotten the weep. It is still under warranty so dealer will fix. I asked them if they would put another type cylinder if I buy. They said they would (and give me the updated buell parts the warranty covers for spares).

So, any sense of which I ought to buy? Oberon or EBR?

Thanks,
LJM

i have the EBR actuator kit - price is much better than oberon and itīs still dry : )!!

For the EBR kit you donīīt need other covers or anything, fits in all bikes since 2008 (mine is also a 2008 model!)

I'm also thinking about buying brake MC brembo too
the difference was very significant in the clutch!

I have the Oberon clutch slave cyl and I am very happy with the performance over the standard poorly executed unit.I also fitted a Brembo RCS brake master cyl, EBR rigid front brake rotor mounting kit and race pads - excellent performance on the track.

Zecca did you get a new throttle tune or did you just pop the dominoGP grips over the stock tube?
I like those grips alot BTW.

I use stock throttle...
in my opinion this is the best grips!

soft, resistant and thinner than the others
