    swap --6 piston brake setup for 4 piston

    I've setup my SV650 racebike with a 6 pot caliper setup.
    The calipers have been stripped and cleaned and work perfectly.
    Trouble is theyre a bit (read a lot) too good for the SV
    Im constantly overbraking.
    SOOO --someone with a 4 piston caliper setup on their gsxr 600/750/1000 or possibly sv1000 or TL1000 that wants a free upgrade -give me a yell

    Frosty, the only 1000 or 750 four pot callipers are radial mounts, there's no way you'll ever get them to fit. You want the callipers from a '98 tp '03 GSXR600. Don't forget the master cylinder too.
