ive got brembo brakes fitted to bike as its a import the last owner put on braded hoses do anybody think they will be ok,because can get some blue spots off ebay, is it worth it cheers tony

Difference is like night and day - bluespots rock

what phuk72 says ,,,and use some good pads ,, i use EBC double sintered

And there are plenty people that would like the Brembo's, so I think you can sell them easily.

Ynot, have you changed the fork internals, my soft Japanese import springs used to bottom when I hauled on the Brembos, rattling my fillings. Have changed to English/Euro springs, and it now retains some shock absorbtion. Brembos and braided lines work fine for me on the road, However Phuk has used his on the track, where the blue spot braking would come in handy for diving up the inside of the 600's.

I have the brembos on my import TRX and am more than happy with them. I tried some blue spots but found them too wooden in comparison. They were very powerfull, but just lacked some feel for me.
I dont suppose any of you guys know the part no. for a set of pads for the brembo calipers? I am going to have to replace mine soon and have no idea which ones to get.
cheers!!

This site has all sorts Brembo. May be some pads on there

They would running the standard Master cylinder.... You really need an R1/6 14mm item for the best of both worlds!
