My 95 front m/c spongy on my 90 bike...no matter how many times I bled them it was not up to snuff. So before my track day I figured be best to have some stoppers that worked. i did two things...beg a brethren for his old m/c from his 95 bike AND concurrently acquire a m/c rebuild kit off ebay for short money (oem is 'roun 35 bucks for rebuild kit)<br>Here's a couple quick pics showing the rebuild kit:<br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>here we have the m/c with the hand brake lever & old innards removed, along with the rebuild kit parts consisting of the following<br>- circlip (sorry correct name escapes me)<br>- rubber boot aka dust cover<br>- spring<br>- rubber for end of spring<br>- internal valve body actuator (you supply correct name and I'll edit!)</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v206/ ... rake_4.jpg" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>a pic looking straight down the m/c with guts removed</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v206/ ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>and with the innards installed minus the rubber dust cover at the end</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v206/ ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br>Haven't tried this yet but looking at the old parts - they were pretty worn and dirty.

well...the replacement m/c worked the best I think they are meant to...but not at my expectations.<br><br>I'm thinking yall were on to something with this R1/R6 m/c. By middle to end of my track day the lever was a bit spongy and I even re-bled the lines. Stopping power was good and really didnt fade much thorughout the sessions...but that lever is just not stiff enough. Granted it was getting a good work out over the course of 7 hours.<br><br> <p><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:steelblue;font-family:times new roman;font-size:medium;">-John </span><!--EZCODE FONT END--> <!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v485/ ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:blue;font-family:times new roman;font-size:small;"> <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v206/ ... cement.jpg" target="top">1995 FZR1000</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--> <br><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:blue;font-family:times new roman;font-size:small;"> <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v206/ ... 00x600.jpg" target="top">1990 FZR1000</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--> <br><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:blue;font-family:times new roman;font-size:small;"> <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v206/ ... resize.jpg" target="top">1990 FZR1040</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--></p><i></i>

I get confused John...You have so many FZR's <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :hi --><img src=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v209/ ... Waving.gif ALT=":hi"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> Does this one have 6 pots?<br>I found that when I changes from 6 pots to R1's and I kept the original MC, the lever was VERY hard with little feel. HUGE power, but little feel.

yep so the m/c I got from drjim went on my 90 bike with 6 pots and hel lines. Your m/c certainly felt like my 95 bike...nice feel BUT after so much abuse it went away just as my 95 bike did.<br><br>Your brake lever at laguna I tried and it was super stiff - surely something that would be more resistant after a track day to spongyness<br><br>so what combo did you have back then jim? at laguna?<br><br><br> <p><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:steelblue;font-family:times new roman;font-size:medium;">-John </span><!--EZCODE FONT END--> <!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v485/ ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:blue;font-family:times new roman;font-size:small;"> <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v206/ ... cement.jpg" target="top">1995 FZR1000</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--> <br><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:blue;font-family:times new roman;font-size:small;"> <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v206/ ... 00x600.jpg" target="top">1990 FZR1000</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--> <br><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:blue;font-family:times new roman;font-size:small;"> <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v206/ ... resize.jpg" target="top">1990 FZR1040</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p072.ezboard.com/bexupbrotherhoo ... >jjs777</A>  <IMG HEIGHT=10 WIDTH=10 SRC="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v485/ ... states.gif" BORDER=0> at: 8/25/05 1:27 pm<br></i>
