Evening all.

Come to the conclusion recently that i'd like a bit more stopping power at the front end.
Refurbed my calipers on my last service and replaced brake fluid but there's still not enough stopping power for my liking.

Apart from the obvious brembo etc aftermarket master cylinders and calipers and such, is there any other models that bolt on without too much modification, while also being an upgrade over the original?

I've heard the 929/954 calipers and MC bolt straight on, but some have said they are slightly different and improved over mine, while others have said that the only difference is that they were painted gold? Any ideas?

Any info appreciated.

I would start with brake lines, performance pads and rotors and see how that feels before getting into the master cylinder and calipers. These make an amazing difference right off the bat and still leaves you open to the other upgrades if you still want more. These are also fairly easy and relatively inexpensive.
I'm not sure about compatibility between the 954's but the 919 has 4 piston pots as well, the main difference looks like the rotor size.

Whether you switch calipers or not, I'd start with steel braided lines. I'm pretty darn sure you'll feel the difference immediately. Much more positive feel when you grab the brake handle. I've seen them sell for a tad under $100 new or $50 used. You may need to source a double banjo bolt unless it comes with the lines.
After that, slap in a set of Carbonne Lorraine XBK5 pads. These are some of the best aftermarket pads I've tried.
If after that you still want more Whoooaaa!, then start researching rotors and calipers. But I think you'll feel a significant improvement with lines and pads.

Ahhhh, looks like I forgot to put what I've already got on. Lol. As it stands I have venhill lines (1-2), Armstrong waveys, and EBC pads.
I've not long put those in too, probably about 500 miles ago. Are carbonne lorraines really that good then?

Cheers for the input so far guys.

I would find a Master off of a newer R6 or R1, they are cheap and would compliment what you have already done to your bike. That or really and radial master off of a newer bike, I have just had great luck with the Yamaha parts.
