ZX14 Calipers installed on a 2004 ZX10!!!!Pics too!!!!
Well, they're on! They are PHENOMENAL!!! I don't think it'd get any better with 1500.00 calipers. I've got scary good brakes!!! These puppies will stop me as fast as I'll ever be able to take advantage of!!!!!!!!!!!

That's a big NEGATIVE on both!
Galfer Waves & Brembo Radial master 19x18.
galfer S.S. Superbike lines.
I've got about an extra 1 to 1.5 inches of length on the lines due to diff. position of banjo bolt on caliper. Not something that I would consider a problem

What was involved? Same hard brake effect as the 14 has? Same lever travel too?

I'm curious if you replaced the rotors, ss-lines, radial MC prior to mounting the zx14 calipers or was it a all at once total package install?? what i'm wanting to know is how much of a diff did the calipers alone make if decernable??

BD.................I do believe he already had those other parts you mentioned. If you notice the above pics The lines are already on the stock calipers and in fact on the top picture the stock left is still mounted on the bike..

No,
This particular set-up(w/ the mods I listed) is Better READ: Much Better than the ZX14. You can stand this puppy on it's head w/ 1 finger. Less lever travel than the 14. You have better brakes than the motor has power!

That's pretty serious braking. Stock 10R has poor feel on the lever...must put a lot of fist into it to get it to brake hard. Question Bill, can you just install the calipers from a 14 right on to the 10 or do you have to mod the brackets -- and if I did that, would it work as well as the 14 or do I have to do other mods? I hate the current brake feel on it....my R1 has the same feel as the 14 and that's what I want on the 10. I have stainless lines on there now, but it hasn't done jack for the brakes.

I priced new 14 calipers at the dealer today and they can be had for right at 400.00 for the set.. Not too bad for brand new units

Hey BD, why don't you roll your gaudy, Buell wanabe eyesore back over to 10R.net and moderate the little tiffs that break out over which color Pazzo lever is the blingiest? Besides, I really doubt some clueless punk ass bitch that corrects an oversize banjo bolt with extra crush washers and thinks stickier tires are dangerous is going to be taking advantage of improved braking.
Whoa! Where did THAT come from? I gotta lay off the energy drinks.

Likely the brembo m/c AND the calipers made the biggest difference.
rotors make a difference in feel, when going to wave, but rotor diameter is what makes big changes in power when exchanging rotors, those galfer rotors are likely stock diameter, waves as I didn't notice any offset spacers.

came from your typical rude ass thats where, oh but then we all know that so pffttt.
BTW MR Asshat, or is that Assclown..... don't matter as either moniker fits f'sho and its none of your business where i post and about what as you weren't spoken to.
Now if you care to find out if i can use my Buell wannabe bike with 1 xtra crush washer that performs just the same as it would without bring your asshat to my neighborhood and i'll kindly send you home in a daze pal.

I had the Galfer rotors on the bike before I did the calipers. You should have no problem installing the Calipers on a stock ZX10r. Though, the radial brembo master was also a huge improvment, the finishing touch was the ZX14 calipers.
Again these are a bolt on item. Plug & play!

Calipers were a substantial difference just by themselves. Are the worth the swap? For me they were!

It's Mr. Proud Assclown to you, felchbreath. If you ask on this forum, someone might be willing to help you fix that rolling testament to your bad taste and stupidity. I'll give you a hint: "Bolt length."
PS: Don't get all flustered. I only know you from your cowardly little bitch online persona. I'm almost certain your don't have tantrums, pout, and wear girls' undergarments in real life.
