Need help finding front brake rotors for ZX-14
I have a couple questions I can't seem to find using the search function.
Does anyone have recommendations for replacing front brake rotors and pads on a 2006 ZX-14, and where to get them online?
TIA,
Mike

i'd normally suggest performance wave rotors for a sportbike, but the ZX14 brakes so dayum well stock not much reason to spend extra money on anything

At least I think they are warped. The front end shakes pretty bad when stopping.

What about steel braided lines ? I always put that on my bikes...Do you think the ZX14 does not need em ?

after 13000 miles or so my brakes felt they would benefit from stel lines on my ZX14. I was going to put the steel ones on but got rid of the bike. until the rubber has some age and wear and tear, I doubt you'll notice an improvement.
steel lines are obviously the very best though!

Don't over look a bad or cupped front tire causing warped rotor symptoms .
