    Anyone ever used Brakecrafter kits for caliper rebuilds?

    This looks to be a bit cheaper than the kits on Partzilla. 2007 2008 2009 Yamaha FZ6 Brakecrafter Front Brake Caliper Seal Kit | eBay Think this would work for both of my front calipers?

    05 - R6s fork conversion question

    I just got the R6s forks and brakes with the master cylinder/lever still attached. So, here is a question : My 05 has twin-pot brakes up front, should I use the R6 master cylinder/lever for the 4-pot calipers instead of the ones on my bike? Reasons that support the change : - Stock part...

    Better braking performance for S1(2005) model

    As the title says, I am looking to improve the braking performance of my 2005 Fz6. The reason I feel lacking in the braking department was my first intro to BMW S1000RR at California Superbike school (I thought I hit a brick wall on that bike) and my friend's S1000R (the naked BMW). So, I was...

    WTB: Bolts from Front Calipers

    Looking for decent shape replacement of the 4x bolts holding the left&right front calipers. Mine were somewhat used up when I bought the bike and getting progressively more difficult to remove. Most parts shops don't sell them anymore. Let me know if you got those laying around. Thx...

    Front brake question

    Hi all, just another quick question.... My bike recently went for its annual MOT (which it passed straight through) and the tester noticed that the front brakes seemed to be binding slightly although he didnt judge it as a problem. So i took it home and took out off the caliper and removed the...

    Brake mod a little different.

    It's mostly a theory but I wanted to ask. I upgraded brakes by HEL lines and gold EBC brake pads. Also put 10W for oil. I have S1 so the calipers cannot be changed without fork change. I could look for S2 forks and calipers (plug and play comparing to R6 mod) as R6 calipers and S2 calipers are...
