They're nice, but you get to a point where too much is too much :P

I'm with sg, i'd rather have more braking than power, at least you can have fun diving under brakes beating everything else and carrying what little power you have 8) of course we want both though.. :lol:

6-pots are a bit crazy. And also because they aren't fitted with dust seals, they would be a bit of a pain for normal use. If I was going to fork out the cash, I'd buy some of the 4-pot KAD ones (gold).

Haha, I wonder who that was :lol: 8)

Brakes came in handy on more than a few occasions that day...coomsy's rover nearly got it's rear end rearranged after some exhaust avoidance tactics from up ahead as well :shock:

You would have to ask why manufacturers previously fitting six pots would return to 4 pots. Suzuki did this on the GSX-R.

Too much bling not enuf performance.

they sure are purty, but totally useless, any more clamping pressure than wheel lock up is totally useless. The biggest improvement in braking is getting rid of the heat generated by brakes and calipers cause the heat so without using a bigger ventilated disc they are just bling
