Brembo RCS19 Install on a ZX6R. 

Hi. Thanks for the comment and watching. Yes already been done but I get asked alot on the forums how to remove. It gets confusing as I believe the only bikes with smog is from california and the rest have a pairs valve or secondary vacuum valve. Seems we all call it differently, all over the world. I've also heard people call it part of a clean air mod. Looking to get back to filming. Thanks for the support. Tim.

Hi again, i just wanted to ask. Do you have any social media or any platform so i can message you?

I'm only on Facebook. Forum group: 98-02 Kawasaki zx6r only. I'm admin there so ask to join and I'll add ya. Can message or call through that mate. I've also just recorded and in final edit of the removal of the pairs valve system for ya. Should be up in next couple of days.

@dacat8171 Hi. Thanks for your comment. I personally cannot disagree with you more. In all honesty if I hadn't of fallen in love with these bikes as I had a J series before, I can say I wouldn't of bothered but because I knew I was keeping it I wanted to modernise the bike and improve it. If you compare the new bikes to these older bikes the brakes, suspension and performance have improved over the years. In my opinion the brakes and rear shock are that bad for my use but rightly it's a matter of opinion and personal use. I say to anyone who buys a 98-02 zx6r to ride their bike and see what they think and would want to improve. Most say they want to improve their brakes, suspension and gearing. If you rode a standard 98-02 bike next to the same bike fitted with a Brembo RCS19, braided lines and sbs pads your see the difference is actually night and day. Now whether it's a waste of money is really down to if you require more brake and if your happy with your standard set up and if your happy then yes there is no point, however not everyone believes the same, including myself. Thanks again for watching and the comment. Thanks Tim.

@@kawasakizx6r813 You may also consider that 600s are to be ridden smooth, therefore there is no hard braking like on the superbikes. Naaah, your explanation does not convince me at all. Furthermore the Brembo RCS19 is not made for maintenance. If it leaks, it is gone, although there are companies who deal with overhaul kits.

@dacat8171 Hi. My explanation isnt meant to convince you. Its simply says that if your happy with your brakes thats great however me personally was not. I know alot of people who ride the 98-02 zx6r's that feel the same, that includes track and road use. Personally I wouldn't consider that a 600cc are to be ridden smoother to a 1000cc. Personally I ride my 600cc harder than I did my 1000cc and I'd say alot of people thrash the tit's off their 600cc where a 1000cc to do the same can be ridden smoother, at the end of the day your still going the same speed and need to stop. I know if I need to perform an emergency stop I can stop quicker now than with my standard brakes. It's all down to your own riding style and use. If your happy with your brakes then you don't need to improve them. Thanks again for the comments Tim.

Yes can be tricky getting air in lol. It's tight but can get my hands in there. The brake lever feel is different on the 4 pot Nissin. The 6 pot tokico with the RCS19 feels sharp from the first squeeze, where as the 4 pots with the RCS19 seems to have more feel. Brembo do recommend a RCS17 with 4 ppt 30mm pistons. Can only say it feels slightly more braking on track but to be honest I personally don't feel its a massive leap in performance especially for the cost.

@@kawasakizx6r813 yeah twenty+ years brakes surely will not be the same with today's technology, but shows how good they are. I recently discovered one of my fork seals metal clip is getting rusty and I think she will have to go in 😱 because I don't have the necessary equipment and patience to do it myself. With the fork covers it is difficult to clean and see any rust there , new seals and oil I think she's overdue 🙄 Nice to see you uploading again Cheers 👍

Thanks. Had a really bad year health wise, still going through them but hopefully gonna be getting some more stuff together. Thanks for the comments.
