Upgrade to GSXR600 K1/K2/K3 Calipers

[Wabby]

Can somebody please enlighten me as to what I will require to do this?

Will the GSXR master cylinder fit the handlebars/lever - or will I need a ZX7R master cylinder?

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers

GSXR M/C will fit. If you can actually bleed brakes properly you probably won't need it though

I can bleed properly. The garage myn went to confirmed this. lol

Just the calipers seem to be wankered that I have atm.

So the ZXR lever will fit the GSXR M/C, or will I need to use the GSXR lever?

Cheers

i'm fairly sure the ZXR lever will fit, but don't hold me to that... I know it fits the GSXR1000 K1 M/C

I use the standard zxr mc with the gsxr 4 pots. It works fine

OH......MY.....FUCKING.....GOD!

THESE BRAKES ARE ABSOULTELY FUCKING AWESOME.

I will encourage anybody to bin there shitty brakes, and upgrade too some of these babies!

I would also like to Publically thank DaveW for sending me a set of his discs to eliminate my discs from my braking problems!
The guy is a gent! Gave me advice over the phone/in pm, and let me borrow some discs for just the price of postage

DaveW - Thank-You! Its people like you that make small communities like this great

These K2 brakes are awesome. I had the back end up a few times this morning, and I am actually beating the bigger bikes on the brakes now that I have confidence in them

Everybody needs to upgrade - NOW! lol

how are they better ? there jsut 4 pots like the standard? might just be teh betetr m.c ??

[Wabby]

The pistons in the calipers are about 2x larger each, and they stand the bike on its nose, unlike my freshly rebuilt ZXR400 calipers.

Seriously, these are a must for all ZXR owners!

Also, I am using the same M/C as original, which I rebuilt before rebuilding the original calipers!

I take it the standard hoses fit the gixer calipers then?

[Wabby]

I used the ones that came with the GIXXER calipers. Just used the ZXR banjo for up @ the M/C

Changing pads shortly, so will be doing a picture guide for this shizz

[fletch_407]

im in the process of upgrading to the gixer k3 1000 calipers (4 pots not the 6) and obviously going to go for braided hoses, so i wanted to know if i could bu them off the shelf an which ones? i was thinking the zxr 400 race fit ones buy goodridge?
