Morning all, was wondering if anyone could help.. am having huge brake fade trouble with my Suzuki GSX-R600 on track, its got 5.1 fluid in, fairly decent pads and braided lines, but by the end of the day the lever is coming right back to the bar even with full adjustment Confused

Does anyone know how to sort it? and for as cheaply as possible too hopefully Very Happy

Any advice would be really appreciated Thumbs Up

Thanks, Sam

are the discs and pads standard spec?
if they are there going to fade after heavy track use, they werent designed for it.

never used them myself but iv never heard anything good about them, actually seen a member of a forum i used to be on where they just disintegrated Shocked.
tbh if you want brakes that you can blast around the track for hours without fading youl have to spent a fair penny, or just let them cool down every now and again.
cant really advise on which ones to get for a bike, but im sure a more knowledgable member will be along soon Wink

Yeah hope so, cheers for the help tho buddy Thumbs Up
