That is what I did and it makes a difference to the brake feel.

Mine are ok... They fade a little after 20 minute sessions but nothing I cant ride. Anyone using Motul dot 4 fluid? If not give it a shot. Master should also help! from what I hear.

Now get this.. I had a parts guy at a local Suzuki dealer tell me that the 08 750 will stay the same but the 08 600 will be different. That makes no sense and does not conform to Suzuki's standard of upgrading the 600 and the 750 at the same time. He also said that only 400 of the 600cc bikes will make it state side by April next year. This all sounds like BS to me but that's what I heard. I don't believe it though. Just thought I would share.

So...

Any new info? Thoughts? Pictures? Photochops???

Just wondering if it's time to run down to the Suzi stealer and buy a 750 before they are no more!

The '08 GSX-R750 gets minor engine revisions, mostly new fuel injection including secondary injectors for improved high RPM performance. The ventilation holes at the bottom of the cyclinders get alittle bigger to further reduce pumping losses. Bore and stroke remain the same as well as compression ratio, albeit redline has been bumped up to 15,000 RPM (only 1000 RPM shy of the Gixxer 600's 16,000 RPM Redline. WOW! That is pretty impresive). Style changes look really good. The Exhaust gets bigger and shoved more to the traditional single sided exhaust design, no doubt to meet strict Euro emissions, but it suprisingly doesnt look as bad as when the Gixxer 1000 grew another exhaust on the other side of itself. Headlights look better then ever, the ram air ducts look kind of cartoon looking but Im sure they do a better job of directing dense air as they are moved closer to the nose. I'd say Suzuki hit another Grand Slam. Is it worth trading your '06 or '07 for? I dont think I'll be trading mine in until 750's are puting 150 HP to the rear wheel. Would I trade my '06 Gixxer 750 for a 1000? Hmmm.... Sounds enticing.
