We have 4 bikes in our stable of bikes (three riders). We have two Honda's (07 CRF 250r and 07 Cr125), we also have two Suzuki's (03 RM 125 and 07 Rm250).
Okay, just wondering if it's something with the RM's, but neither have very good brakes. Both the Honda's have a sensitive feel and need very little hand pressure to work well. Both will do a stoppie rather easy. Both the RM's require heavy pressure to even work and no way in hell would they do a stoppie. They just feel very weak compared to the Hondas. I mainly talking about the front brakes.
I have changed the fluid in both front brakes systems on the RM's but not much difference. Is this a case where the Suzuki's may need some help, like stainless steel braided lines?
Thanks for your help.

Since you have 2 of each, you could probably swap various parts and learn a whole lot about what works best.
