Hmm....let me rephrase. My brakes DID seem to gain a little bit of stopping power as I put miles on the motor and loosened it up. They are now bearable...almost normal. BUT, in emergency braking situations, they're very underpowered. Which is why I'm going to buy a vacuum canister. I'd kick my idle up to 900 or so so I'd get more like 15 on the vacuum...but that would eliminate the choppiness of the cam all together...which I really like, so, that's out of the question!
