    Steve, you may find that the usage settles dow as it's run in, mine did. I know it sounds a bit daft, but have you checked it on a flat surface, without putting it on a paddock stand etc... The difference between empty and full on the dipstick is not much at all.?

    If they are like the Brembos on the 600 then the reviews say " Don't be fooled by the name coz they are not very good " Read that in a few mags now

    the master cylinder is the main problem totally strangles the caliper same on the k9s brembo rcs totally transforms them :) must admit this gixer isnt half tempting haha the looks have really grown on me :) but im so keeping the blade cant be mithered taking a big hit on it resale wise plus got an excuse to upgrade it now hahaha
