[Modification DIY] Why Install Rearsets?
on 2025-11-17
Beyond upgrading how your bike looks and boosting its image, what really makes riders happy about custom mods is the performance gain after the work is done. For sportbikes, one of the most overlooked yet most influential upgrades for handling is the rearset (raised footpegs). Many beginners think footpegs are just a place to rest their feet and not worth paying attention to. But once you start chasing more precise, sharper control—whether on mountain roads, in corners, or even during everyday city riding—you’ll quickly realise that the stock footpegs are often the biggest obstacle to your progress.

[Modification DIY] Why upgrade Öhlins suspension?
on 2025-10-25
Improving a motorcycle’s performance has never been just about increasing horsepower. What truly determines both speed and safety is how the tires maintain contact with the road. The suspension’s job is to keep that contact line stable, consistent, and predictable. Upgrading to premium suspension such as Öhlins isn’t about showing off—it’s about refining the bike’s mechanical foundation to make it more precise, more stable, and ultimately safer.

[Modification DIY] Comprehensive Guide to Brake Steel Lines
on 2025-10-06
For riders who value precise control, braking is not just about slowing down or stopping the motorcycle — it’s a core element of the entire riding experience. Many enthusiasts may have upgraded their calipers, brake pads, or switched to high-performance brake fluid, yet often overlook one seemingly ordinary component — the brake line. This article takes a deep dive into the true role of stainless steel braided brake lines and explains in detail how they differ in structure and performance from stock rubber hoses.

[Modification DIY] Introduction to Suspension
When talking about a motorcycle’s front suspension, it’s actually quite easy to distinguish between a conventional fork (right-side-up fork) and an inverted fork (upside-down fork). However, many riders only understand the difference in terms of price — seeing one as “expensive” and the other as “not expensive.” This article aims to clearly explain the structure, mechanical performance, advantages and disadvantages, and suitable applications of both types. The goal is to help riders make the right choice and select the motorcycle setup that best fits their needs.

[Modification DIY] The Necessity of Radial Master Cylinders!
The motorcycle brake master cylinder is one of the core components of the entire braking system. It converts the rider's hand movements into hydraulic pressure, which drives the brake calipers to clamp the brake discs, achieving the effect of decelerating or stopping the motorcycle. Braking performance is undeniably a top priority when enhancing your bike's overall performance. Currently, motorcycle master cylinders on the market are mainly divided into two types: the commonly seen factory-equipped axial pump and the so-called "radial" master cylinder, often referred to as the "direct push" type. This article will provide a concise explanation of the structural design, performance, and riding experience differences between these two types.
