Hi I'm new to the forum I have an mt10 and I would like to know if anyone has fitted brembo front calipers as the front brakes are not the best that I've had and would like to try and improve them I have 2 2015 brembo calipers off a speed triple and as both bikes have 320mm discs i was wondering how much improvement I would get by fitting them and what parts would I need

Not to derail your thread, but a few people, including myself, changed the master cylinders instead to a radial master cylinder. I personally went with the 15+ R1 master cylinder, steel braided brake lines, and SBS brake pads and the stopping power and control are incredible on the bike now. Was a hell of an upgrade financially and mechanically but totally worth it if you really value your stopping power and control and can truly be a life saving modification.
The calipers would indeed be an improvement, but you still have a non-radial master cylinder controlling the whole system. Might not be the best comparison, but its like dumping a lot of money into a car on suspension and the car doesn't have power steering. Sure it'll turn well, but you're going to be lacking in feel and response.
If you're interested, Use the search function or check down the forum threads, I know there's a few threads on this upgrade. Feel free to hit me up with any questions as well. |
