Re: RCR Brake upgrade?

Motul 600 is avaiable at most performance motorcycle shops.

Oh and something else, 6 piston calibers are not all that just because they have six pistons... Suzuki offered up some on thier street bikes some time ago because well, all the racers were using them. Only problems were the pads were so long they easily warped and the caliper was so long they easily flexed. All in the name of marketing, they requiered a lot of service to make them work on a racetrack (production classes).

The current hot ticket in bike racing is one pad per piston setups, no warpage and excellent leading edge bite (many leading edges) along with heavily groved 'snowflake' rotors.
