do you have aftermarket pads? I chased a squishy brake problem around, swapping out calipers, master, lines... only to realize my vesrah pads had a thin backing plate, making the calipers over-extend and be super soft.

new (non-vesrah) pads worked like a charm.

On a side note, if the master you found isn't less than $50, pm me for a cheaper one.

I went from stock --> SBS --> stock.
found that my rotors got glazed from switching pad brands. got the rotors bead blasted, then scuffed up the stock pads. the pads were broken in properly, so I know that's not an issue. I have goodridge SS lines with fresh Maxima DOT4 brake fluid.

I will try the zip tie to the level trick and give bleeding the lines one more try.

at the last pose event, i had a few guys squeeze my lever in comparision to the other gixxer brake levers. they all noticed that it's got a lot more play before the pads grab.

I'm very close to just buying a new RCS M/C off WERA for $300, but I'm getting constant PM's and text saying to just get an OEM M/C.

[Kitt]

oem is the way to go... it's a street bike (ok, maybe part-time trackbike now).

[Jim]

anyone have any other thoughts of what could be the cause? I feel that i've exchausted all other possibilites. I will try Oreo's suggestion next of bleeding from the master (my master doesnt have a speed bleeder) before replacing the M/C.

[Kitt]

y nto just borrow a master from somebody and seeing if it helps?

[Jim]

that's the next step after bleeding them again.

after chatting with Denno and Noel, I'm going to upgrade to an 05+ GSXR OEM M/C. The radial M/C will be a cheap upgrade. Searching on WERA

[Rambunctous]

Watch out for the $49 dollar brembo's on Ebay Motors from China/Taiwan.

[Rambunctous]

Not watch for but watch out for. Look ma, no brakes.

thanks, i've read those threads a year ago. i'm looking for an OEM radial, since they're about the same price as rebuilding mine

you're taking tech advice from denno?

[Jim]

as long as he doesnt touch anything, his bike help is quite useful

[Pigman]

Money is never wasted in good breaking.....but what ever

[Jim]

installed a radial M/C from a K7 gsxr 1000 last night. needed new SS lines with the bend to install at the bottom of the M/C.

thanks for your help
