    I have the zx6 calipers and the zx1400 master cylinder. Awesome combination.

      Really glad I did mine, the brakes are so much better. Worth every penny and makes for safer riding too ;)

    Salty weather and fish - you english have such wit, Hahahaha. Seriously great vlog and great job mate but doing this vlog now entitles me to all your knowledge when the K16 & R12 arrives into the UK...!!!

      Hehe I'm rubbish aren't I! lol Glad you enjoyed it mate, my knowledge is always at your disposal as you already know. Completely looking forward to getting my hands on your bikes and creating the first K16 and R12 streetfighters! lol

    Hey griz, they look in an amazing state coming from the states nice one. You crack me up with your slow voice, and you got deeper too, it suits you ha ha. I bet your brakes wont squeak doing the Stelvio Pass mate, fancy finding out? haha.

    • @SixthGearMotorcycles

      They are in brilliant condition, I spent quite a long time looking for some in good condition and I wasn't disappointed :) haha I've been want to mess around like this for ages but didn't know how, so I spent a day messing with my editing software and hey presto silly voice over clips from here on out (possibly) here we come lol It does suit me doesn't it! hehe. The only squeal you'll hear now is Taffy as she flies over my head when I jam the brakes on! Oh mate, I would really like to get away again, it all boils down to money bud at the moment, all is good I just have a lot of projects going on that require funds, I need a second job! lol

    • @BordersBasher

      You so need to do a different voice start every video now, bring on the chipmunks ha ha. You don't need a second job mate, the money would be nice but we want our Griz healthy and safe. You never know what is around the corner mate.
      If you don't get to venture over this year then defo next year, I'm thinking of setting up and doing a bikers holiday, just for a select few not many, but go off for say 10 days and just have hotels booked but not too far apart so time to enjoy the scenery and we can either ride together or go off on your own.
      Anyway mate, how is your BMW doing? Have you got some more parts for her yet?
      I am testing a few bikes myself soon but not until mid march. BMW is a high favourite but my next bike I want new and after a year say start modding it to how I want a bike to look and feel. Am I getting old also wanting to venture into trikes lol.

    • @SixthGearMotorcycles

      Ah.. Well.. You'll just have to see what Griz pulls out of the bag next lol Your right, I don't need a second job, the extra money would be useful but it wouldn't be good for my health. It's all good really bud, I'll get there ;) Keep me posted on the holiday plans bud as I'm always interested, I'm not sure when we'll get away again but it happen at some point for sure! I've got some new forks for the BMW and trying to source some other parts too, sussed out some rather snazzy clocks for it too and I'm starting to think I may not want to sell it by the time I'm done as I think it's going to look pretty sharp.. Still going to do some test rides but not been able to find the time due to other commitments but it'll happen. I'm looking forward to hearing how you get on with the test rides mate, I know that BMW is high on your list, how did it pan out with the Norton? Hmm trikes, I can't say they appeal to me but I've never tried one and it might be quite fun unleashing all that power in that type of package..

    Hello, does any of you know if the brake calipers from the GTR 1400 are suitable?

    • @SixthGearMotorcycles

      Cichy Moto What year are they off? They might be the same as the zx14r if so they might fit

    • @SixthGearMotorcycles
      @SixthGearMotorcycles  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I’ve just been studying both types and they look very similar and I would say there’s a good chance they are the same. Best of luck with it if you decide to buy them 😎👍

      Check the clutch switch and sidestand switch, make sure they aren't faulty as this will break the starter circuit. Give the battery a long charge on a low voltage charger (my old gen 1 used to be very sensitive to low voltage batteries) and ensure the terminals are well greased. Also check the ignition fuse. I had to take the whole loom off of mine and check for any damage and corrosion on the connectors. Best of luck 👍
