| Brakes - no bite?
I've had my 749S for a few months now, so the brakes are bedded in. However, they don't seem to have much initial bite. The seem really slow to get up to power and even then they're not as good as the Brembos I had on my Aprilia RSV. They're supposed to be the same - Brembo Serie Oro 4 pad per calliper jobbies.
Have I glazed my pads? Are they all like this? I thought at first that it was the relative lack of engine braking compared to my RSV that was affecting the braking, but now I'm not so sure. Is it worth a pad upgrade? The trouble is, everyone seems to rave about the non-radial Brembos on 749/999s so I think it might just be my bike... |
