Well last week fitted new set of shocks to the Yam, "WoW" what a diff it makes, bike feels more seated to the road, Not that where any think wrong with the old ones just a bit to much rust for my likeing, But the new ones sure make a diff. My rideing can be a bit OTT at times so theses have been worth the beer tokens i paid out. So whats next ? A new set of braided brake lines to go with me new rear brake disc Look out Spain 2012 Sky and Jan might be on the way

You will quickly feel the benefit of the braided brake hoses, anchors will be a lot tighter; make sure you don't overdo it on the front while you get used to them

Just make sure you bleed the brakes properly and like McF said, be careful. I nearly over did it the first time I went out with the new brake hose :/ (And that was with the old pads and disc)
By the way: I assume you intend to fit new brake pads with the new disc?
