And if you stood on them they would almost touch the floor. You could pump them and then the pedal would be at the top but after a few seconds brake travel would be back as it was. Several calls to Aerospace accomplished nothing. Even bought a new M/C from them with no improvement. 2 years or so ago I was racing at a divisional and got a little aggressive with the brakes on top end. Car went side ways and just about rolled the car and hit my opponent. Enough is enough. That fall switched to Lamb brakes. There is no comparison. Lots of brake pedal and no issues.
Aerospace....that sez it all.....
