  I don't have too much yet, but I'll pass along what I do find. The reason
I'm asking is that The Triumph T595 motorcycle comes standard with the disc
type injectors. I've heard to avoid disc type injectors, but I want to know
more about why before I go switching them out. All I've heard so far is
that the disc type injectors aren't nearly as linear. I think Lucas is the
manufacturer of the disc injectors.

Thanks,
Brad
