As above, i need/want some nissan 4 pot calipers,
90mm spacing between mounting holes.

I'm looking at doing a twin disc conversion on my Buell
not a 100% sure weather they'll fit so the cheaper(free) the better,

Or can anyone lend me an either side to trial it?


A list of donor bikes that should suit.
GSXR750 (up to 99)
GSXR1100
GSF1200 97ish
GSXR600 (96-01)
RF900
TL1000S

DD,What is the mounting hole spacing on the Tokicos?.

Nevermind, just googled em and they're radial mount.
Thanks anyway.

The Buellista are on the way to your place to whack you.

Please remain where you are.

EDIT: Why are you doing this conversion, btw?
And wouldn't it need certifying?

Shit runs off to hide.......

I think the brakes could be better,coming from the R1 they could be shit loads better actually.
And it'd look good aswell.
As i have two brand new Rotors plus the one already on there can't help myself from playing/dreaming.

i know i could get a left side Nissan 6pot but at US$250!!! or find a wrecked MV750Fi,(the only bike to use the twin set up) not many of em
at the wreckers.

Re cert?...most likely but it pays to know a helpful WOF guy...baffles who needs baffles.....

Don't suppose you've got some spare calipers?????,or where do you park your bike....

Not sure,I can't find the specs/sizes for the GSR ones.
Need to have 90mm centers for mounting holes and 36mm from edge of mount hole to center of caliper.

Ive a set of Tokicos off a 98TLS out in the shed somewhere,from memory 90mm center to center on the mounting bolts.Only thing being they have been out there for a couple of years so will need a bit of effort to free things up.Fwiw no cert is needed,i bolted on a set of 05 Hayabusa calipers to the TL with no warrent problems.Anyways yours for beer money to cover post if you want them.Wont be able to send them until next week.Good brakes in fact just as good as the Busa 6 pots i replaced them with.

No, no spare ones sorry. If you have a look at www.rfownersclub.co.uk, there's a bloke on there who has a parts list of what bits are interchangeable on Suzukis.

I didn't think you'd need a cert for bolt-on calipers - changing the Buell fancy-pants setup I would have thought was a major though. I could very well be wrong, of course.
