I gotta buy some fairly inexpensive pads to track the ITR on, as apparently, the S2000's carbotechs do not fit in the front ITR caliper.

But...I do have my old stock S2000 front calipers laying around.

May as well send all of them then, in'it?

The leaky one might get fixed for free. Otherwise, IIRC, its like $200/ea to rebuild thru KW.

Mine were fine...but I was looking at getting them rebuilt. I ended up selling them for cheap and buying Öhlins instead.

I've heard of many cases of peoples KWs eventually leaking. Not very confidence inspiring, that's for sure.

I've heard people who have heard of it. No first hand experience with it. Not even 2nd hand, like "my friend knew a guy...".

Only rumors of rumors.

Not to say it doesn't happen. But mine were great for 7+ years.

oh I'm not saying every set of them is garbage I'd still highly consider them.

I'm saying that they seem to have issues more often than other well known brands. You just got an example right here from an actual user saying his is leaking.

I was once in a Scottish wedding, and the attire was kilts. We got them near Gary (but not quite). So we got shirts that read "I almost got Kilt in Gary".

Untrue story. Never happened.

But I did wear a kilt in a scottish wedding tho. "No underoos, lad".

Lmk.

I'm not making any more kilt puns.

I've found that a women's size 2 to 4 fits me. So...they did likely get my kilt from the tilted kilt.
