hey mate. love the bike. what front caliper is it on there? looks like a yamaha r6/thundercat? and who made the bracket to fit it? also what front brake disc did you use? i need to replace mine as the standard one is shockingly. might sawell not even have a front brake its that bad. could you email me the answers to rob@eyeswitch.com if you have chance to do so please. it would be much appreciated.
hole for hole, yes. you just need a spacer making to run the disk clear of wheels and fork leg. The caliper needs to be assessed to so it doesn't do the same.
Always mock up, measure twice, cut once.
that's why you see a conti board spacer and caliper mount in the pictures.Use washer to pack, then measure what you have.
gorgeous!!
ReplyDeletethanks, I'm really pleased how it turned out
ReplyDeleteAwesome bike Drew! Post more pics :)

ReplyDeleteRob, I'll answer here for you and others that are interested.
ReplyDeletethe caliper is off an XJR1300 blue spot which were fitted to R6's etc
the disk was off FZR125R front.The bracket I made with ally plate and a hack saw
