Thumbs up First track day with new brake set-up

Wow!!! what a difference . So much more braking power... Only need 2 finger at the end of the straight. (Previously I needed both hand on the lever to stop...) The small 600 racer dont outbreak me anymore .

Gsxr 1000 master cyl.
S/S HOSE.
RC51 Caliper.
EBC H/H Brake pad.

I strongly recommend this mod.

Thanks Reaper!

Both Hands on the right grip??? No wonder you were getting passed!

I've got the 929/954 master, and similar setup and it does indeed upgrade over the stock brakes.

Were you at Talley this weekend? Mixed it up with a yellow Superhawk at the track. I was on a black GSXR600 with orange tape over the headlights.

What is different about the RC caliper? Previous owner on my hawk upsized the rotor but looks like they reused the caliper using some relocation brackets. Although I have no idea where the parts came from, and some day may need to replace them.

I bought a full 954 setup with SS lines. I just havent bothered putting them on yet. I was planning on selling them, but i keep reading reviews like this and can't make up my mind.
