    I upgraded my XT to ZTL2 and EBR finned rotor. The ultimate stopping power is not necessarily improved. The tire will lock and skid at the same point either way. My biggest noted improvement is in the firmness of the lever and consistency. Maybe my old ZTL1 rig was just worn out, but it always had too much freeplay in the lever and inconsistent lever feel.

    Hi all, thanks for the answer. I finally decided to order the ZTL2 kit for XB9Sx.
    I guess I will have one of the only XB9SX with ZTL2 and EBR rotor !

    As far as I know, it is not stock as it doesnt have the tail.
    Then the headers (is that the right word in English ?) looks like they are from an XB12. So I believe your picture is from an XB12 and not XB9.

    When I talk about the headers, I talk about this :


    Correct me if this is not the wright word !

    Oh ok Thanks. But still, are you sure the XB9 had the ZTL2 also ? I thought it was only put on XB12 (except XB12X).

    You are correct, not on the XB9s. They did not go fast enough to need the ZTL2. LOL JK
