Ugh! I think I was sent the wrong pads. Does anyone know if 03 GSXR1000 EBC HH pads (22-FA369/4HH) fit an 04 GSXR1000. My quick evaluation tells me no. Anyone?
I have a 03 1000 front end on my SV. Each caliper has 4 separate pads. Are the 04 1000 calipers the same?
I also need a set of pads for my calipers. Are they the kit HH or the street HH? If they end up being the wrong ones I am interested in buying them off you.
Nope. The stock ones from an 04 GSXR1000 are single pads. Since posting this, I verified stock pads are different from 03 to 04. They are neither (street nor kit pads). They are HH sintered pads. I'd sell you these, but I'd be better off shipping them back. At least that way, I may get my shipping costs back. You could possibly buy them cheaper. Thanks.
Suzuki actually changed to a single caliper design this year after advertising last year that a dual setup would reduce the "warping" factor at the track. The funny thing is that C. Ulrich and friends upon testing the 04 were wondering why the change since the single caliper design warped almost immediately when testing the 04 model at the track!!!! Wooops....Suckzuki may have to buck up on this one before the big lady sings!
yup, i've heard 1st hand stories of both rotor and pad warpage with the new '04 calipers. Glad I got two pairs of the '03s.
Hey any of you guys know how to get the old (96-99) gsxr front wheel to work on the new gen GSXR's? I have a post in the Tech forum about this.
03 and 04 pads can be used in both models. If ou have brake probles it is because the master cylinder piston size is to small, 03 is 14mm need to be modified to an 18mm piston
