Unlikely. They mount differently.

Will you also be spending $200 to retune your ecu or are you just gna destroy your engine?

Don't change the air/exhaust until someone makes an ecu management device readily available. It's not worth it.

I read from one of the EU members last year that the dealer can reflash the ecu or something.
I've read the same thing about Triumph Daytona 675's. Triumph has a map at the dealer that works perfectly with the Arrow full exhaust (or whichever full exhaust that you use) and they'll put it on your ecu, no worries. |

Sorry about that Tri! Been a little preoccupied. But yes, it turns out that the pads fit fine, and I had them on the bike for this Sunday's ride. The weird part is they still aren't working that well. They always take some time to bed in, and hopefully their feel will continue to get better, but initially they behaved much worse than the stock pads.
I'll update as I get a better handle on them over the next few hundred miles. I owe you a new set of FA197HH's, and I'm happy to ship them directly to your house if that's OK.

Sweet! I'm glad they fit. Did you break them in before your ride? I'm ok if you want to ship them or if you just want to send me a paypal payment for the cost of a set. Saves you from having to ship and I actually don't really need them just yet.

Just sent you $, thx! I tried to break them in, with moderate braking for awhile, and have gone to harder braking to try and get them bedded in. I am onto max braking force by the end of that ride, and they are still just OK. They work fine, but I hope they come in even better, as the difference from stock to where they are now isn't much different at all.

Is the 300 the same weight as the 250? Strange that the HH pads feel like organics. I wonder if bleeding the brakes with better fluid would make a difference?
I got the money. Thanks! |

New fluid and SS lines! Be the guinea pig Alex!!
The other option is to just replace it from the lever/MC all the way to the caliper with the 250R parts. We know those are good enough to do stoppies. |

It looks like the mc & rotor are identical. I don't have any reason to believe why it should feel different at this point. Time will tell.

The caliper looks identical, and the line I'm sure is identical. In other words, I'm pretty sure the entire system is the same. It looks to be so, which is why I'm curious why I'm still not ecstatic about it.

The rake is more conservative, but I don't see how it would affect brake lever feel.

I think it's just taking time for the crap from the prior pads to make its way off the rotors, and be replaced with the grippier crap from the new pads.

So it's more about the feel of the lever and not the braking performance? If the rake changed, shouldn't that also affect how the bike brakes in regards to shifting it's center of gravity? Center of gravity may not be the best term to describe what I'm saying.

We're way overthinking this.
![]() The new pads haven't provided as much of an improvement as I hoped. Initially they were terrible, but I know that the EBC's take a little while to bed in. Now they are probably up to what I was feeling with the stock pads. I hope they continue to improve. None of this is particularly relevant to how the chassis feels while under braking, which actually is a noticeable improvement regardless of the pads; it's much, much harder to bottom out the front fork than it ever was on the 08-12 bikes.

Do we know the wiring diagrams yet? I'm interested in swapping over the left hand controls so I can get a high-beam flashy button because I flash when I pass and it's annoying to click up click down click up click down when I could just flash flash.
It would also get rid of my choke lever (which I don't need anymore) and clean up that a little bit. |

Looking at the wiring differences, it appears that "GPS Unit" means factory alarm system. Doesn't seem like it was offered that way in the US.

Thetwowheels.com levers
I got my levers from the2wheels.com and they fit perfectly and appear to be good construction. I am now able to adjust the levers just the way I like them. I will post some pics when I get a chance.
These are the ones I got including color of titanium on black shown below. http://shop.the2wheels.com/CNC-Foldi...t-Kawasaki.htm |

Here's the info for the adapter in the front, I'm using the one from Agras.
