Rick, I want to try and put the bike back to a more standard / original look, so really wanted a set of standard calipers; so would not need them, but thanks anyway. Looks like you've found a buyer though :-) Steve: bit of a bugger really: they are good powerful brakes with no fade, but since fittin...

Brake Calipers - Z1000 A2 needed

Guys - I have a modded A4 fitted with Z1000 A2 forks (and AP Racing calipers) - I need a set of original A2 brake calipers as I'm ditching the AP's: its a long and painful story (they warped a good set of disks in 2000 miles) :evil: :evil: :evil: http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/aa340/tonto100/P1...

Brake Calipers - A4 onwards - query

Guys, sorry had a case of brain fade (probably Alzheimers), but just realised I am off to Santa Pod on Sunday so can't make it.

Enjoy the sunshine & I hope the RSPCA event is a good un.
