BMW S1000RR has generally had fantastic brakes, and the gen3 initially had Hayes made brakes which were superb (but they did have a recall due to leaks), and now BMW uses Nissin made calipers on the S1000RR. I haven't ridden the gen3, but I hear the brakes are superb. Honda CBR1000RR-R also use high spec Nissin brakes. I've owned a Daytona 675 with Nissin brakes and KYB suspension and they're 90% as good as Brembo M50 and OEM Ohlins. The rear KYB shock absorber unit even had high speed and low speed compression damping adjustment, the Ohlins on the Daytona 675R didn't have this separate speed-based damping adjustment.
KYB Gas A Just front and rear on mine. They’re great.
I just put KYB all around on my 430 last week. Rides great!
I went with Japanese KYB shocks for my Wrangler SpUA.
I did kyb factory replacement shocks with the original springs and on my '08 ES350 and it rode like a dream. It was a little taller however until the shocks calmed down.
I suggested KYB Gas-a-just shocks. Not to expensive and they are a great mix of comfort and sportyness
Had the same experience installing KYBs on a 2005 Honda Accord V6. They sat high and never \"settled down\", even years later. But the KYB shocks were good quality and made in Japan.
I also installed new KYB shocks (which seem to make the car sit rather high in my opinion).
I had the HD on my pickup and it was rough.
I had kybs snap off at the weld on one end. Not even doing anything wild, just on the highway. Never buying them again.
