Vtr W/f4i M/c Front Brake And 6 Piston Caliper
Hi, i just finished swapping f4i m/c w OEM Vtr m/c bolt right on (using same lever too) and my front brake now feel much much better compare to sponge stock m/c. My front brake feel powerful almost as 954RR .
And thanks KILLER 5280 for your tips.

Why didn't you go with the matching gixxer m/c?

The F4i mc is the same bore as the stock gixxer piece and uses the same lever as the Super Hawk.

Advice...
What advice did Killer 5280 give you? I am in the process of getting all the parts to do a complete SP2 front brake swap (except Galfer SS lines for the SH) but the SP2 calipers, EBC HH pads, SP2 MC. Getting the calipers ground down this week to fit. Then once the pads are in, the game begins...

I believe if you go with sp2 m/c and calipers: your front brake gona feel better than mine bcause sp2 have larger m/c and calipers. The reason why Killer 5280 advice work good for me bcause it save me another brake (pazzo) lever, m/c larger than hawk (14mm compare to 16mm) and f4i m/c way cheaper than 929RR, 954RR or SP2 m/c on EBAY shopping. Diff just like night and day OH i forgot to mention i do have Russell SS, and i want to replace my EBC pads for VERSAH pads i heard it even better.
