Sisters Finally Together
« on: June 11, 2016, 02:43:21 PM »


After a good amount of time the sisters are finally united. My 02 Lemans and my 06 V11 Scura #354

When I got the Scura I wanted to solve my rear brake boiling issue so I had this installed.



It's interesting how different these two bikes are .

Yeah, it is, isn't it? Even at that, I think your Lemon is the best of that type I've ridden.

Izzat rear brake caliper a bitch to bleed? Or is it easier to turn the bike upside down?  Good fortune, R3~

Great looking bikes!

How do the suspension setups compare between the two?

Completely different. My Lemans is Marzocchi front and Sachs rear rebuilt by Racetech and the Scura is all Ohlins . The Scura sits at least 2 inches higher. The Lemans is nice on the highway and has to be pushed through corners a little and the Scura is telepathic in the corners and is always ready to dip in the straights. They handle and feel completely different with their own pros and cons. You can certainly own both where they're just that different.
