    best brake parts source...GS750T Single front disk

    I'm looking to upgrade my front brakes. My "T" is a single caliper setup. Current rotor shines like the sun, and is well glazed. I Just bled and refilled the master cylinder, and its really not working well at all compared to before the procedure.

    Q1: Can I get the glaze removed via machine? (rather than me doing it will my drill and a wire brush or by hand with steel wool) I'd like to have the glaze professionally removed and the disk surface be flat and prepped for new pads accordingly.

    Q2: Best supplier for affordable, but not crap, steel brake line?

    Q3: Pad recommendations? I know nothing of how to source quality brake parts, or what pad material is the best for single disk front brake setup. All recommendations considered.

    thx

    I've done a MC rebuild. I soaked the MC for several hours in Cleaning Solvent...Which cleaned out the tiny holes the brake fluid travels through.

    I went to a local shop in SoCal to have the braided line made; cost was about $20. I brought the original line with me so they could match its length.

    I bought new brake pads too but did not resurface the rotor. I have a thread you can look at...I'll have to find it for you.

    my opinion shouldn't be taken as gospel or in any way that would lead you to believe otherwise (30Sep2021)
