Are your pads and discs in half decent condition?

Mine judder a bit but thats cos my fork seals have gone and all my fork oil ran away but i cant stoppie at my spot in shit weather anyways so it dont matter

As for the bar brake you can use pretty much any master cylinder as long as it has a seperate reservoir (not built into the bar clamp) but dont buy a shit one.......cos it will be shit obviously

andy248176 · 11-02-2009, 03:15 PM

nice one the discs seem sweet and the pads half way down, did change the break lines to braded but 2 seperat ones all the way to the top if you get me, thank you 4 the bar brake get myself down bike bits tomorrow

if its a shuddering you most likely have a warped rotor or other brake issue. if youre getting head shake could be a bent rim or just an oddly worn tire if everything else is tight. do you run a steering stabilizer?

Wilko · 11-02-2009, 04:19 PM

Make sure you get a radial brake master cylinder cos theyre much better than the usual poop they put on bikes, ebay is probs the best bet, i run a Gsxr k7 master on mine cos i got it free an it works pretty sweet but if ya can afford a brembo get one of them

andy248176 · 11-02-2009, 05:13 PM

whats the rotor??? the tyre is pretty crap never thought of that i am still running a 16 on the front whch means not much choice of tyre. lol and no damper of any sort on the steering

umm im not sure what they call em in england but its the round metal disc that your brake caliper clamps onto...

but yah if ur tire is junk thats the first thing i would replace.

what a rotor looks like^^^^

Wilko · 11-02-2009, 05:58 PM

Theyre jus called discs over here cos were lazy

but i have heard them called rotors by a few people here before

+1 if the pads are old they are prob glazed over pop some new ones in first.

jonnybravo · 11-03-2009, 10:49 AM

if it judders its the disc !! !!! dont put new pads on a shit disc , as they wont wear right ..... change the disc before anything else !!!!! trust me this is my job..

GHOSTIE · 11-03-2009, 11:24 AM

things it could be....

fork bushes
warped discs
shitty brake pads
fucked tire....

ride along in a straight line and apply the brakes gently, if you feel a pulse through your lever then its the discs.

If you dont have a pulse through the lever then try a new set of pads as its the cheepest option

then a fork service.

Dont go changeing your discs at first, make sure they are faulty as it wont be cheap.

andy248176 · 11-05-2009, 04:12 PM

we call em disc brakes, floating discs, cause some bikes here still have the old drum brakes, rotor is what a plan uses to fly ha ha

andy248176 · 11-05-2009, 04:19 PM

well my parents have just moved and my dad had a go cause half my old fireblade was in there, so i got new discs (rotors) front wheel, and a old friend on here big mark is hopefully dropping off a load more stuff, so i will post when i changed all the things people have put on, let u know when it goes
