The builder was the guy in pb a few months ago with the very trick sp2, uperton reckons it's good for 150 bhp plus at the wheel with original carbs and headers so I can't wait to get a system and flat slides on. Need to look at the brakes as well as I've spoilt myself with the brakes on my other bikes.

Those flatslides must be worth a few bob on their own, i looked at a set of Keihin's for the zx9r and they were about £1500 .

Where did you find it Hemi, the PB forum ?

Yep on pb, jay 111 said he wanted to finish his 7/11 endurance but needed to sell his 11 1st so I messaged him for details and got itπŸ˜ƒ, he's got some other nice bits for it as well but I want to put my own touches to it.

It will be a proper bit of kit once you've done your bits, I really like them anyway but with 150 at the wheel that be an animal ...
A set of BST's would go nicely on it though

Yeah seem to be, only bought by chance, the guy mentioned in a post that he was looking to sell it so knowing what he's like through his build threads I messaged him, for it's age it's incredibly tidy and with the mods using man maths I couldn't say no 😏

Never had a problem with mine, used to regularly pull the pads for cleaning, very good brakes and used sbs pads if memory is correct.

Had mr braking here today aka wal from pfm, he was in the country in stoke on Trent and said he would call in to take a look at the gixxer, you couldn't meet a nicer and more helpful bloke who loves his job. He brought some caliper adapters to try so I can fit radial calipers with 330mm iron discs. Said he's going to send me discs, calipers, lines, brake and clutch mc's with numerous spacers to make it all workπŸ˜ƒ
