motorcycle 2004 gsxr 750 front caliper problems?

May 28, 2009 by gsxrman 2009 | Posted in Motorcycles

Hey I have a 2004 gsxr 750 that I race and do track day's on. I have a Brembo master cylinder, Gafer stainless braided lines, and Motul RBF 600 racing fluid with the highest boiling point made. I have tried Gafer pads and stocks, and EBC race and still

That's strange because the '04 GSX-R750 has decent stock brakes and even with the stock set-up, they aren't known for excessive fade. Magazines listed that year 750 as one of best sport bikes ever made. Lots of people run them at the limit at the track
