Carbon is awesome, amazing stopping power. What could go wrong? In the cold? with no heat in them?

 

That's pretty much what I was thinking, yeah.

 

IDK about carbon other than the Braketech carbon rotors I had on a 999. They were awesome.

 

Maybe they meant "Al Carbon"...as in tacos Al Carbon as a description of how good their brakes are. Or maybe they shifted the paradigm so far that they can actually use cooked chicken for brakes.

 

Not all carbon is "carbon" you mean?

 

OK. They must mean carbon ceramic. Not true carbon-carbon.

When I hear "carbon brakes" I think Carbon Carbon, F1 type needs lots of heat.

Carbon ceramic on the street/track is fine

 

Nothing screams safe like a 200mph street bike

 

Meh, I'm not interested until Termignoni has a slip-on for it.

 

Do I have to wear a suit, tennis shoes and no socks to ride it?

FTFY

 

Ok.... That's hilarious

 

You might be waiting a while..... You know..... Various reasons and such.....

 

Hey, if people are dumb enough to buy a $500 "slip on" for bikes that still have the toaster sized *actual* muffler I'm sure Termi can sell something to doll up their iBike

 

And maybe include a sound clip of a Termi to be played through the electronic dash so people will feel better about it.

 

"include"? Like...for free? That's not how it's done anymore.

 

Old man termi is rolling in his grave....

 

What happened to Termi? Past 5 years, they've fell off the map, seems like Akra took over at Duc as the factory partner, and the shit they've been releasing keeps looking worse and worse.

 

I dunno how much he had to do with day to day still.. But things like this can affect stuff.

Ah yeah, it does say he sold the company in 2015. Timing seems to line up with their demise.

 

I will say, there is almost nothing sexier sounding than a Ducati dry clutch rattling with a set of carbon termis..
