I went with R6 brakes and a Brembo master cylinder.
i was trying to stay away from switching my calipers out but if thats what i have to do to get best performance than thats what i have to do. did you try switching to the 07 before you switched?I went with R6 brakes and a Brembo master cylinder.
Really? I am confused to be honest...:OI got my brakes to about 80-90% of what my 2001 J model zx6r brakes used to be (knock off galfer wave rotors, HEL ss lines, EBC hh pads).
It took me a lot to get the 06 to that point.
ebc HH pads
Coremoto SS lines
brand new 2013 zx10 MC
scrubbed caliper pistons
multiple bleedings (holding caliper upside down as high as possible, tapping it)
I'd say replacing the master is a very good idea. Depending on how much riding I will do this year, I will invest in some 09-12 calipers.
You could use any ninja model master since they got the same handlebar dia., I'd go for the newest I could afford.
Should I still be unhappy I will replace the rotors.
i thought the same thing. i manual bleed them and sucked the fluid through and went from the bottom up. i looked into the master when i rebuilt it and didnt see any pitting but thats also with my eyes. i have done brakes an my other bikes and never had a problem. i think im going to throw a zx10 master on it. i just want to make sure the banjo bolt is the same size.Really? I am confused to be honest...:O
I mean....go through the break lines from top to bottom there should be no reason why your not at 100%
1) Rebuild MC
2) Replace break lines (SS)
3) EBC HH Pads
4) Rebuild pistons in Caliper
5) If you need to go that far new rotors? I never had to...
6) Fresh Break fluid and bleed em
What am I missing? I mean...if your not at 100% after that somethings up....just saying
I'm not too sure it is...you may have to change the lines...and calipers...and rotors...it never ends lol.i thought the same thing. i manual bleed them and sucked the fluid through and went from the bottom up. i looked into the master when i rebuilt it and didnt see any pitting but thats also with my eyes. i have done brakes an my other bikes and never had a problem. i think im going to throw a zx10 master on it. i just want to make sure the banjo bolt is the same size.
well if it works out ill let ya know. anyone out there try the zx10 mc???I'm not too sure it is...you may have to change the lines...and calipers...and rotors...it never ends lol.
But who knows...I never tried:O
At least for the 11-14 zx10 I can say the banjo bolt is the exact same dia. I never thought of that when we put on my fiancée's zx10 MC.well if it works out ill let ya know. anyone out there try the zx10 mc???
