Posted here due to vintage classes. Posted on WTB and nothing. Need: Front end, preferrably lower legs and claipers only. Send me what you have
Buy some R6 or R1 "Blue Dots". YZF600 calipers are similar except they have a funky tube on the outside of the caliper. They all bolt right up and there's a greater assortment of pads available.
Bolt right up to the later style FZR forks (90-99) ? My problem is I have an 89 front end that only accepts the single piston caliper. I suppose I could modify a braket - but was looking for lower leg conversion as fork diameter is identical 38mm. Thanks
If you go with the 90-99 forks (lowers) I think you will need a new front wheel (just the rotors probably) also. There is a slight offset (dish) to the 90-99 rotors. I may be confusing this with the 88-89 single 2 pot 400 front brakes vs. the 90 400 4 post brakes which I know has this problem. I'm pretty sure it's the same with the 600 2 pot v 4 pot front calipers. Custom brackets may be your best bet. I know people have made them before with success.
fyyff - what you looking at for shipping to 02760? I am in a time crunch too. Big ride coming up in a couple weeks and want to have straightened out before then. Thnx You can PM me if you want
I've got a 93 front wheel/rotors with a new PP on it I might have spare r1 blue dots laying around too, and maybe a MC
