Well I got the bike back and she's all ready to go now. Just have to wait till the 9th march now. This is the new colours. What yea think ?? All comments good and bad please.
I like the paint, it looks like you could get away with a couple of offs and it will blend in lol Kind of looks like my r6 after I chucked it down the road
Thanks lads. I think the rear Brembo is a replacement for the blade. But I had to get the bracket machined out for the spacers on the HRC swing arm.
Deffo not an aftermarket caliper mate, its on OE caliper from another make, probably italian, all aftermarket racing ones are gold, oe black. Interested to see the pics of the caliper bracket though mate, see if its similar to mine,
Well the calliper fit straight on to my road blade and the bracket looked like it was made for it. It has the spacers running trough the adjuster blocks and swing arm so when the wheel is removed every thing stays in place. The calliper was in the box of spares when I bought the bike so I don't know what it came off but it was in a clear bag with brembo on it and had never been used on any other bike so not to sure what it was ment for.
Ducati etc have OEM callipers in gold, silver and black, they are 84mm spacing, racing callipers are 64mm to confuse thing they make HPK kits in 84mm too and also now even in Nickel and HPK in black too rather than the old Ti colour.. The mount could be a ladybird or CZ or even Brembo, some companies are now coping them too! Most of the run of mill mounts take 84mm OEM brembo callipers, beware from model to model the banjo and bleeders can be placed differently, racing mounts are often made to spec.. Nice bike...

Well my pre scuffed look is no more pre scuffed. gave it a trashing down the road last saturday. Not to much damage but the fairing got a good trashing. The steering damper bracket broke on it and it ended up spitting me off in full flight of turn two at Mondello park. But we will be back up and running very soon and back out to put manners on this beast. !!!
