KZ 1000 Rear Hub / Damper Affect Performance
22 Aug 2012 21:17 - 22 Aug 2012 21:29
I was wondering what the forum thought about the performance or not....of the KZ 1000 rear disk brake wire wheel hub. Are there problems with using this combo hub-damper system in a hight performance bike or 1/4 mile passes?
Thanks
Thanks

Id say it makes life easier on the driveline when you drop the clutch hard,but it weighs a ton compared to a spool.
Some turbo guys like a heavier rear wheel to help keep things spooled up.

Can you buy new rubber dampers for these hubs ?
