Levo Gen 3 Make is brake better?

[Santa]

Hello, I don't find the brakes that came with my Pro to be powerful or grippy enough. It has Code RSCs with 200mm rotors. I would like start by changing Rotors and-or brake pads. Looking for your recommendations and experience. Thanks!

Perhaps they are not well bled / setup / bed in. RSCs are some of the best brakes you can buy.

You have to center the Pistons properly. Its a bit tricky but its worth it.

I do the old trick of a tie wrap around each lever pulled in and position the bike upright with the front in the air , leave it overnight and the brakes are so much better

Used to do this every night on my old Gsxr750, I would boil the brakes up most mornings on my way to work works well.

Changing the pads to Trickstuff or MTX red or gold makes a nice difference. That said, the standard set up on RSC's with sintered pads is a great starting point. Gotta get a good bleed and make sure the pistons are nice and free first though (same with any brake).
