I've tried fast throttle on my XJ6 before, but found it quite uncomfortable in town because of how "keras" it feels to make small inputs, I took the rm 10 shopee domino fast throttle and modified the tube to fit the XJ6 housing

the front brakes are definitely lacking on this bike, mine has steel braided hoses and aftermarket master cylinder, u can buy those rm 15-30 ones for kapcai, make sure to roughly measure the length

I'm using a chinese master cylinder, the brand is Adelin, around rm 140 on shoppee, these wont really improve the braking power but the braking feel is soooo much better than the spongy standard setup

forks I havent really done anything besides 15w oil as not so many cheap aftermarket options haha

steering damper u will have to sendiri DIY the bracket, but the only times where my handle goyang is when im riding very aggresively laugh.gif

If u want more peace of mind, u can get the RCB brake hose, but I havent really faced any issues with even the rm 10 unbranded hoses, my friend has been running them on a naza blade 650 with dual 4 pot calipers for over a year now, my XJ6 came with original Hel hoses, but the outer rubber coating gets rubbed off just as easily as the unbranded hoses if not routed properly.

The hoses with threaded fittings im not a big fan of as ive had them come loose and leaking on other bikes

The master cylinder I got the 17.5mm one but I think a 16mm is better so u wont have to put as much force on the lever to get the same amount of braking power

Have u guys even tried better brake pads like the ebc hh?

Having real good calipers, hoses n cylinders will still be bad if paired.with pads that dont bite

Thats in my cart already biggrin.gif , but havent gotten around to buy them yet as I was contemplating buying chinese sintered pads, my buddy just got a set of the chinese ones for his gsxr 750, quite a noticeable improvement according to him
