The GSXR 600,750 & 1000 Hangout. Where All GSXR Riders Chill And Gather!!

Hey Dudes...

Anyone changed their brake hoses?

If yes, which one would u guys reccommend?

I was thinking of either Venhill or Hell. Which shop?

 

And another thing i'd like to ask for comments....

Comparing from my previous ride, Ducati 999, it has awesome front brakes.

But with the R1, the brakes doesn't 'bite' enough.

So if i wanted it to 'bite' more, what should i do? (i'm trying not to spend much)

Change the hose?

Change the brake pads?

 

HEL is available from Unique, Galfer at Motoworld.

 

EBC 2HH pads from sporting motorcycle.

 

Changing both lines and pads will make the initial bite feel better. Retain rubber hose if you prefer more progressive feeling.

[TyrÃl]

Looks like you've got to change the pump!

 

Yup, change the pump.

Change the hose?

Change the brake pads?

 

Any steel braided hoses works well.. it all depends on the bleeding.. try those shops that uses air compressor/vacuum for bleeding.. eg. tachyon motor(ahtak).. with this method air bubbles wont be trap in the hose as the vacuum is constant, furthermore it is a very clean and neat process, wont make a mess on ur rims and calipers..

 

For brake pads.. I've tried braking and ebc.. Braking got more power but disc will wear out fast with uneven disc surface.. EBC worked ok for road use.. I would recommend EBC HH...

 

Still not enough?? then go for brembo rcs master cyclinder like what others said.. U can feel the bite even @ high speed.. good investment if u wanna feel the difference

[lo-on]

magura better

want? i sell you mine

 

then where i keep the extra magura brake pump? inside my drawer?

[shaunz]

well well.. if u say magura better why r u selling it away??? pawn it lah... at pawn shop.... hehehehe

Upgrading your brake or clutch master cylinder (hereafter referred to as a "master") is a great way to improve the feel of your braking system. A Brembo master cylinder offers a wider choice of master cylinder configurations and better construction than a stock master. That's not to say that your stock master is crap but in most cases, it's like trading in your Lada for a Ferrari.

 

Ok, to sum up this diagram, you pull the lever towards you and it pushes a plunger through a cylinder. That plunger squeezes out brake fluid out of the cylinder, down your brake hoses and into your calipers. The brake fluid in the calipers push the brake pads into the rotors, causing them to grab onto the brake rotors, thus causing you to slow down or stop.

Hey, let's stop and take a look at this lever design - it'll explain why most aftermarket master are radial. Notice the direction of the plunger and the direction that the lever travels. With a radial master cylinder, the plunger travels in the same direction as the lever. In a "conventional" master cylinder, the plunger actually travels perpendicular (or pretty close to perpendicular) from the direction of the lever. It makes sense that you can get a better feel for the lever if it's going in the same direction as the piston and plunger (radial) rather than going off on some funky angle (conventional). This is the main advantage of the radial design.

Understanding the Features of a Brembo Master

Now that we have a basic understanding of a master cylinder, let's look at the important stuff to know about a Brembo master. We can figure out most of the important stuff by the name of the lever. As an example, we'll use a 19x16 Billet Non-Folding Radial Brake Master Cylinder...let's look at the picture below:

Thanks for the info.

That means my Master pump is a 16xXX.

And i should be using a 19xXX ?
