I heard that they were the original aftermarket calipers, along w/ airheart calipers. Anyone verify this?
Just wondering....
Thanx!

Anyone know anything about 'em? Anyone ever use 'em? Are they worth anything?

They might be worth someting due to nostalgia value. I seen different models on bikes on the net. I'm sure that you will check eBay.

The quad ring is a stopper for me buying any old caliper. Without that suppleness to pull the piston back. And then, Cammy, what squid took a sand paper roll
to it inside is no longer a mirror finish is it finis shed it you figured out not to sand it! I'm kidding, but how about the bleed screw in the threads (I
cannot for the life of me faucet this nipple to death get the bubbles out... OH, are they at the top me pushing them down day raise right up, me pouring in
more 3dot the WOT out of the screw it; shed it.) ; torn out and the squid behind ebay that cannot pull the piston out, because he hasn't a clue about
blowing his ear drumbs out with a leak eel SHIT.... Bought another classick of this not asking the questions, WHAT IF? I need a non-working part holding down
my paper...Wait! Work it out..... I figure if the name says stop planes on the ground all purpuss me face against the ground and ear any coming?
I sorta wonder how well the "diss script ton" of words it takes to bend you over (ebay style), not exposing me nosing in on the game... Not that I'd buy a lock heed diss warning if I can lock the stop on the that 14....... Who needs Lock Sneeze a crying a whatever..... I do not takes notes; using memory only. As long as Cam is pondering, I'll pond dear dat was a lot of money for carving a little history of that part and who did what to years of non-fluid flush? Cammy and I think on the same plane... Sorta "Wait" in line for tickets, to pee, parking, pee, park the....... I gotta peee right back! |

Cam... the value of the AP Racing calipers depends entirely on the model number and condition. Certain specific models were used on a number of vintage racers
"back in the day" but the problem is the lack of rebuilding kits for them. AP has re-released a very limited number the models in their
"Classic" line, but they've also dropped replacement parts for the original series. The new calipers are expensive and the old calipers are
sometimes sold for more than they're actually worth to unknowledgable enthusiasts, but the fitment is very model and date specific. Acquiring them for
resale is a big-time gamble unless one also has the internal replacement parts. I use them on my Rickman Cafe Racers, but have been able to acquire NOS units.
Hope this info helps. RR

is there some sort of program available to translate what cntrhub said?

Do you mean like a "Stream of Consciousness" writing to "Normal" writing translator? Alas, no... But it worked for e.e.cummings: why must itself up every of a park anus stick some quote statue unquote to prove that a hero equals any jerk who was afraid to dare to answer "no"?

replace "stream of consciousness" with gibberish and "normal" with english and you got yourself an idea........ Maybe his wife could help.

Red, Believe it or not, she is a professional teacher. From 1st to 6th but mostly 3-4 for 30 plus years. I said, I have this complex computer bike and I think
if I just do it MY WAY, I think I can instill more theory that will make one think rather than be told the answer. Like, I can ask which way the room light
switch goes off and you say down. That is the answer and now I know click up or click down.... But where does the light come from is more added to the click
switch. And for me to speak where you just read it and all of sudden it is funny? It spoke tech as well? It rolled the tech in the funny? "LMAO,
WTF?" Did you not walk away laughing and why you laughed was that joke rolling up the theory you could use any theory to mean the same thing?
She has told me over and over again how the diss traction will not work. I am saying you do not ruin my formula to both my whack if we were around speaking in conversation, or here in type. My head is racing is either in that pit of your bike is banging out as fast ass I can in a quality type finish as I can (no come backs) where the pressure is on; I never lost a life or wheel, and you heard the horror stories of the journeyman in the shop forgetting to tighten the axle after a tire change. So, how can I get across to you that when you explain something; ear I go in mental mode and just walk your abstract to the my abstract. I've been here 4 years with a little absence buying an '06; I tumbled or more or less working on the bike and studying up on it. That took me away from here to another website that opened up for the new model. So, here I am and now back with an '08; cause I totaled the '06; took the insurance money; basically rotated it to an '08 and ear we are. I changed nothing in my metaphysical caloric intake than before. I'm basically working or tuning some of you up to theory..... MY WAY! Not 30 plus decades of experience; her way. It would be like me following the person who took second place and I am literally following that person every turn. So, is that person slowing me down because I am now more or less listening to the person in second place is a championship lead or do I hang back and run his race or her teach and see if I can do this diss on my own without harm, nor foul to any person but the book theory and me walking the abstract of the post someone sent in. Am I dissing and do you see a consistenCCy of me pounding the theory and not taking things personal? Not attacking a person in here as if I ever did.... Maybe 74 pinched a nerve, but hey, do not think you piss someone off or someone pisses you off at work or at home say, and then you even forget what it was about? Who cares! You remember the incident but who wants to bring it back up is my kneechee showing one more sit you ation. Do not make it personal as if you are wound up in kneechee to justify the argument, and now tell me you are diss putting the 3V's??? Ha! Got that covered and if that abstract of yours can clear the tower taking off and it props the propeller to fire off.... Must have found one of the many variables that absolutely work. Anything else and that fallacy deserves a dissing 4ever stroke it forever! Tell me a seal is going to decompose in a caliper and that is why the oil turned color? Like a tire out in the sun decomposing ass-hole (think) sits in the caliper? NOt a hot kinetic stove burning short track NASCAR cam fender in the remember zone of Cook and RUN?...... You dumb son if I bitch about that fallacy ALLeye get is blackeye.... Not pinkeye if she'd let me see it. I am not color bind my ICE dare and stare for awhile... I just wish you were looking were eyes is looking? She is rubbing a dubbing full of type write now. Because some woooo moan deleted my post at a car site and I told her as if I have never heard diss, but someone gave me a kneechee about what I was posting is toasting something or other.... And I gave that murder ate her or webowner guy a PM he throwing that password flag at me..... That was ALL I needed coming back from the dead and now listen to the same shit from some thinkspeak about me speaking for the group or his group and I told him he knows what he can do with his website and spoiling my schooling and ruin it for others that may learn by the out of the box thinking the complex. Wanting to "Sell" his website sorta spoke volumes of what little rant I said in his ear; he lining up with me to race my race. Go ahead.... Teach my class I think I can school a little bit.... maybe not a lot, but what I know... I kind of know.... And I think you can figure it out if I rant the riddlediddle ride the crap out of it and wear you down like lap after lap you keeping up is me keeping passwords............. LOLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLlo............... Hurry! |
