Limp wristed wussies the Brembos work fine, bottom the crap front shock springs off the stops just fine ( makes your teeth bang together though, which is why Rossi wears a gum shield).

Keep your Brembos and buy one of their forged radial master cylinders (19X20). Combined with braided lines you will have the brakes that make you grin from ear to ear. Use "Genuine Yamaha" pads that have "Brembo" stamped into the back.

There's nothing wrong with the "import" Brembos, the Sumitomos, yes (flex and heat buildup). Or, if you don't want them give 'em to me!
