Morning All!

Anone know anything about ZX6R G1's??

Occasionally upon braking at slow speed (sub 30!!) i feel a small judder, feels like from the front wheel.

Possibly a bearing? Any help/info would be greatly appreciated!!

Ta!

The only similar thing i had was on an R1, it turned out to be the discs had a bit of 'something' on the seating face. A warped disc could cause this too.....

Head bearings loose, tight, knackered ? My old ZXR suffered badly. probably due to my poor landing of wheelies.
front tire pressure (always worth checking),front tire defect ? Top/bottom yoke pinch bolts loose (scary), fork bushes knackered ? Brake calipers loose (very Scary) & as Gixer said dics warped or contaiminated pads. Good luck !
if any of the above proves useful we'll call it a pint !

Perhaps removing the dead animals from the front wheel ?
