No, but they told me they will do an upgrade kit so people that already have their disc brake can also upgrade to antidive.
Slow is the new fast!

Meus Lambretta est non infractus. Is est quietus.
i've got anti-dive on my series 6, had a shot of a mates non anti-dive double disc set-up recently. Its like night and day. seriously recommend it.
i had a wee 'moment' on the way back to smallbrook when at IoW. The bumpy road back to the campsite. Loads of up and down and some off camber. well gave it some berries and (the throttle stuck on officer) so was up to nearly 90mph, car in front of me whacks on brakes because passenge is gonna be sick (no joke), i hit brakes and get that weavy weavy squidgy sensation but to be fair, the back wheel was about 2 feet in the air and the front is intermittently grabbing on the tarmac but beejesus it stopped exactly as you would expect under duress. excellently. i even managed to look like i meant it
they are superb. mine is the Frank Sanderson one btw.

I fitted the ScootRS Anti-dive on my SX today. I've not finished it yet, but I've got a day off work tomorrow so I'll report back.
I've had the previous version on my GP Mugello for a couple of years, so should be in a good position to make a direct comparison.
I can say that the new one fitted a lot better than the previous non-anti-dive one. For example, the holes in the switch housing lined up with those on the bars
and the wheel seems to sit centrally between the forks without any packing
No instructions or pictures supplied like it promised in their advert though
to be continued...........

I got instructions from their site.
Have the disc but haven't installed it yet. Waiting for the cold swedish winter first.

ive got an anti dive fitted to a scoots rs disc on my gp, jb tuning have been doing this modification for a while, its a really good mod and simple really. il try and get a foto loaded up later, its only 1 extra nut n bolt if you need to get front wheel out. i wouldnt want to ride without it now
