Hi blokes.
I see some of you have gsxr 600 calipers fitted.
 can someone tell me what models of calipers to fit and where to buy mounting brackets, or the whole set up.

I may be selling my setup. I got the brackets from SVracing parts, their website will list the bikes.

There are a few calipers that fit, my ones are from a Honda 900 hornet and Svracing parts sell mounting brackets for both Honda a Suzuki calipers, its money well spent in my opinion. If bigpie is selling his setup I'd go for it ..! Try to upgrade your mastercylinder also. :thumb:

I'm selling the bike, so if someone buys it and doesn't want the brakes, I'll have the 4 pot nissins, adaptor plates and stainless steel lines up for sale. The brackets from svracingparts are very expensive for what they are, iirc I also got hit for customs fees.

That's bad luck .. I managed to swerve the customs fees somehow ...  :shrug:
