    it wont STOPPIE.....????

    so... when i first got my Katana i could do stoppie's pretty easy....

    now, after it got layed down and the fork went out which all of that stuff is fixed now..... it wont stoppie anymore....

    i have checked the brake reservoir its full.... i have bleed the brakes, there good..... and i have cleaned the brake pads and rotors, no coating.....


    SO WHAT WRONG ????????


    i can cruise at any speed and grab a the front brake as hard as i want and it will just grunt to a stop......

    Front forks too soft (diving instead of rotating)? That might totally be backwards though ... never intentionally did a stoppie.

      Either not bled well and there is some trapped air in the system or you need the master cylinder rebuilt.

        yeah i was thinkin air in the lines but they feel really stong and i have bleed them a coupel times...... and still nothing.... i just messed wit it again a few min ago.... cleaned the rotors off really good again and it still wont do it.....

                true, but Katana's are friggin heavy. Yeah like that, just get a kit for the right bike, I don't know if anyone's told you, but you don't have a GSXR

                        maybe it realized how heavy it is?
