    Love your videos man! Keep em coming! Did you get affected by the brembo 2018 recall also?

      +DrZr Thanks! Yes although my recall was the non radial version and was done early 2017
      Brake was still so so at best hence the upgrade

      did you notice a difference? Did you also test the 2017 Tuono?

      +Jayden Valentine no I've not ridden the '17 (in fear of wanting to buy one) but the difference is huge with this setup. Best thing I could've done
      Much more consistent, a nicer feel and grab and less fade

      ok cool. How reliable is the Tuono? How would you compare it to your GSXR on the road & track?

    • @Birky_41
      @Birky_41  6 лет назад

      +Jayden Valentine no issues yet at 7600 miles. Gear shift spring came loose. 1 min job to fix. Uses a bit of oil every 1000-1500 miles when ridden hard... That's about it
      Its very different to my gsxr which is setup solely for track. The Tuono is much more fun, torquey & softer for my road riding. If I had it setup for track I'm sure it would be a quick bike in the right hands!
      The gsxr needs to be thrashed but it's a great bike when you start pushing it

      Hey mate I ended up seeing some boys here called goodridge and we ended up making a twin brake line set up. With the master and lines its insane the difference. Better than the 1100evo brakes on my Ducati now. Worth every penny. Thanks again mate.

      Really glad you got it working well for you. Great brand you went with. As I said in the video, it really is one of the best mods you can do

      I did yes. There's a lot of talk between the two and a mag comparison on brake testing. From everything I read the 19 was the better choice

    every body moans about mt10 brakes didnt no tuono was the same ,ebc pads fix the brakes on mt10, you must have arms like arnold schwarzenegger now after that up grade.

    • @Birky_41
      @Birky_41  6 лет назад

      So true. One of my lot rides an MT10 quick and first proper ride out nearly cooked it big time. Did the same as you and sorted it right out. My Tuono was sorted in 17 with the better radial system but my brakes were garbage. They'd stop quick but feel was inconsistent and repeated use would have the lever go spongy plus come back to the bar

    • @adriantompson
      @adriantompson 6 лет назад

      have you tried dot 5 brake fluid that doesnt boil as much as dot4 fluid used to use that on my r6 also abs brakes are shit on any bike they should be a switch on all fast bikes to turn them off.

    • @Birky_41
      @Birky_41  6 лет назад

      You can turn off with my bike and in ABS1 you're hard pushed to get them kicking in even on track. It's all the extra plumbing needed for ABS that makes them feel like they do. Not tried dot5 I just run a very high quality motul factory line dot4

    • @adriantompson
      @adriantompson 6 лет назад

      only way to turn off abs on the 10 is take the fuse out, bit shit. your lucky you can turn them off.

    • @Birky_41
      @Birky_41  6 лет назад

      Ah yeh that is a bit. My brothers gsxs 1000 is the same and was kicking in hard at cartagena recently. I guess different bikes have different abs setups
