    I think they are actually. 'billet' 6 pots rather than Kawasaki 'tokicos' which would make sense!

    Interesting the see hardly any brake lever travel !!!!

    The same can't be said for the poor front forks, or the front tyre!

    But then two fair sized blokes and a ZRX aren't exactly the lightest in the world

    Ive got a set on my blade and they are a work of art (and have six individual brake pads per caliper)

    Once sorted they are incredible tho and them wheels do look smart

    HOWEVER......8 Pots are better.......take a look.....these are fitted to my BM 1200R Cruiser......actually made by Brembo. Would love to have a set for the ZRX but unfortunately they are not made any more (luckily I have parts to keep these in good nick).

    Re that photo.......very frightening.......I have actually seen a GSX 1000RR doing this and the axel broke out of the forks both sides......a major mess !!!!!Attachment 16956

    4 pads by the look of them , even so I bet they're still ferocious.

    4 pads are correct. Ferocious...........you bet ! Just one finger pressure on the lever is perfect. It's interesting to note that the ABS system on the BM could not cope with these callipers, so the ABS was binned.

    Pads come from SBS and Pagid. Both were supplied and without question Pagid are by far the best.

    I am scouring this planet for another set of these callipers, very difficult to find.
