~1400 rpm is high-ish?

A little heavier and I suppose it comes up faster but you get used to it pretty fast. I still have to put my AP1 slave cylinder on and the spoon braided clutch line I have. Might tackle that this weekend.

A little heavier but comes up faster sounds cool. Quicker engagement with less slip when shifting up top. Spoon braided line? Nice! AP1 slave FTW as it doesn't have the CDV. Definitely faster/more hardcore/more raw than AP2 delayed version

Good point on the grease and other factors influencing pedal feel. Sometimes with the wrong grease you can get a "scrapy/bubbly" feel on the pedal lol.
