I know marcus, but nothing mentioned about wheel spacers or other relevant parts to fit for example a front nc wheel.

That's great information to have. I often consider this swap, but always wondered about the spacer issue and if you needed to do anything with the rotors to make them line up with the Triumph calipers.

The daytona calipers sit 2mm over the outside of the nc discs, its either bigger discs or machine the calipers. They work fine as they are though

So is it the Daytona (not -R) and the street triple (not -R) that I need plus spindle? The ones with radial 108 mm caliper mounts..? And to solve the 2mm overhang, fit rc30 discs = 310mm?

Did the issue of the offset, which determines trail, get covered? I guess there is not much in it. The details I have collected thus far for Hondas shows little difference. http://litetek.co/Guide_USD_ForkDatabase.html

Thats what id do and if needed then space the calipers out as thats less destructive than machining the calipers. Or fit a 675 front wheel and discs.

You want the non R model daytona forks ideally, or the R model street triple as there the same as the stock daytona forks except for being a bit longer.

Thanks Tony, your info is very helpful as usuall !
So I've decided to stick to trumpets. Since this afternoon pair of forks and wheel and discs....all 675, all check 8-) Now on the radar a new carbon fender, radial calipers, new lines and new brembo rcs mc.

Are Brembo calipers any better versus 675 Nissin?

I stock the wheel spacers for the Triumph forks into RVF yokes conversion, I can also supply billet yokes to put 675/ST forks onto the NC30 frame.

James - I thought that the Street Triple forks were actually shorter than the 675 Daytona ones - my ST forks are 725mm from the centre of the wheel spindle to the top edge of the top nut - how long are your Daytona ones...?
