    Great vid. Fingers crossed for the new gaff! Also can't wait to see how the GSXR evolves. Looks like braided lines, discs & pads are probably in order. I'm guessing you'll probably end up chucking a new rear shock on it too which is probably essential for the track. Link pipe & mapping should be a quick win & the wheels are interesting one. Dymag's would be awesome but pricey so hopefully current Gixxer thou wheels fit as you say. Could also get a lithium battery to save a few kg's too, especially if the battery's old. So many geeat options Chops, very exciting!

  • @tomuxs13

    The stock MC is the source of the lack of brake feel, an RCS19 does improve it significantly, getting aftermarket callipers helps a lot too, I've put Hel Callipers and Mc and honestly the bike finally feels modern in the brakes department.

    That is one tasty bike bud, absolutely beautiful. I just got new rubber for the start of this season as well, Road 5's for the wee girl and Road 6's for the big lass. And as my big lass is a bit of a retro homage, I have decided that I am going to permanent white letter the Michelin and logo's on hers, just for something that wee bit special. I think that idea might also look great on your machine too, should really pop with that livery. Anyhoo, it's obvious that you are really enjoying the raw no nonsense man:machine experience, roll on spring and summer I say!

  • @lindmill85

    These are a wonderful bike, my advice for the brakes is a 19mm brembo master cylinder and braided lines help but not much. Also clean the slave cylinders and disc bobbins before splashing the cash. Also a sprocket change -1 and 2 up on the rear. Bazzazz used to do a cpu upgrade that would control all the injectors which you only get from a power commander if you buy the second injector
    controller. You’ve got a great bike.

    Great video, chops. Really interesting. I’ve just picked up a zzr600 with 7k miles from new on it, luckily it’s only suffering from being stuck in a garage for 14 years, and being used as a shelf by the look of it… tyres was a very smart move, brake hoses definitely would be a good call, try bendix pads as well. Used them on many many bikes and they’re bloody brilliant (if not a bit noisy on the road if you go for a high sinter) the shock looks like you’ve hardly any pre-load in it, so would well wise to get it set up for you first and see if it’s good enough or worth replacing out. Fork oil worth changing, too. You’ll enjoy this one, I can tell. Keep ‘em comin and see you around the local roads I hope. 👍👍👍

    You'll get there with a bit of time and money but like you said it's what it's about. Not just riding but tinkering and improving.
    Look forward to seeing the progress 👍

    Congrats with your new place Chops! I recognize many of the adjustments you want to make to the Suzuki. The Japanese motorcycles of that time had a bit of the same thing. I have a ZX-10R from 2006, first owner and a low mileage. Over the years, replace all the points that you want to replace. Including Brembo calipers and a Brembo brake pump, Spiegler brake lines, Ohlins suspension, Valtermoto brake shift kit and PCV. Because of all the adjustments decided to keep her next to the other Kawa's and it's no longer interesting to sell her.

    How sweet does that engine sound! beautifully smooth. love it.
    If you accept that you're not looking to replicate the brakes of a recent S1000RR etc, and you want to keep to a reasonable budget, I would be inclined to stick to a set of EBC HH pads, disks and braided lines. That should give you great bite, power and will work well for road and occasional track days.
    How many times have you heard someone say - oh stick on a master cylinder from this, the callipers from that, forks from the other, some specialist compound brake pads, sprinkle on some old racer know-how, and hey presto - you're left a grand out of pocket with a devalued bike that only stops in very specific conditions/not at all..
    100k plaque is surely on it's way very soon 👍..for your new garage with convenience of having a house attached 😀

  • @chrisgenever7002

    First thing to do is check both rotor runout and thickness. Check the runout with a clamp on dial indicator. Check the thickness all the way around with good calipers. The rotor should have no differences in thickness the whole way around. Runout should be within spec, usually 0.002". Congrats

    Nice video! I had a k7 1000 it was ace. Personally I wouldn’t bother with a power commander… they are expensive a pain to fit and can only overcome fuel and timing. I would go with a remap from moores racing or someone similar. After a full remap you will have full power in all gears, no top speed limiter and it will be cheaper than a power commander. I had a power commander on my k7 and it didn’t make much difference, slightly smoother but that was it. Also a remap video would ace too! Keep up the excellent work chopsy.

      @@stichupman you can fit a radial MC from a 2005 onward gsxr1000, you'll need a HEL mc convertor (which allows you to keep your current braided lines, if you have them) and some 4 pot calipers from a GSXR600 SRAD or some Nissens from a Honda, should make the world of difference.

    Congrats on the house! I hope you will get it:) I’m not surprised ppl prefer a gixxer video. It’s something they can relate to. As much as I admire supercars and bikes I am simply not interested in watching anything about them. It’s unlikely I will ever own one and it seems like a waste of time. Might as well just watch something about space rockets. I can’t learn anything useful from it. I do not understand how people are able to afford most of the new bikes (unless they lease them on pcp, and basically wasting their money) I do like your h2 content though - it’s more practical. You hit a very good point on biker aids - I think a lot of people do not know how to ride without them - it used to be a skill, I’m not so sure it is anymore nor should it be.

    If you have judder the only cure is new pads and disc’s. Brake lines will help with feel but new discs required for the judder. Make sure the mating surfaces are flat. And clean before torquing up the fixings. Bed in gently

    On the brake front it's the master cylinder change it for a Brembo 19mm and some EBC HH pads.

    If you're going for discs I've been using PFm - using them on my Rsv4 and z1000 - 550quid but you can buy all the individual parts making replacing whole discs if they are warped dead cheap....

    I met Nicky Hayden and his Dad once at a Moto Gp in Italy, they talked to me for ages like I was an old friend, he was such a nice guy , I've got a photo of the meeting framed on my wall, it was the year he became Moto Gp champion, just thought I'd share that anecdote with everyone if that's ok Chops.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🇬🇧

    Stick some SBS RS pads in there and some HEL braided hoses. That buzzing could be pad deposits on the discs from being stood. You can check the runout of the discs using a DTI.

    19:00 It's funny you talk of these safety nets. I've never owned a bike new enough to have them. Would love a steering damper on my VTR though

    Good luck with the house / garage move and getting closer to 100K subs.
    I had a K3 and a K9 (yes the one with the whale dick exhausts) Gixxer 1000s.
    Thanks for taking us along.

    Regarding the brake juddering issue, we see you clean the brake disc bobbins with the nut and bolt trick and brake cleaner, but you only rotated them by hand. Perhaps be more aggressive with them and spin them clockwise and counter-clockwise using a pistol drill and with the use of brake cleaner. It may improve the issue greater. Worth a try before you replace the discs 👍
