96 CBR900 calipers, same rvf calipers?

Post by Spike16 »

Hi I bought these cbr900rr calipers thinking they were the same as cbr600rr/sp calipers but now they have arrived they look different but very much like RVF calipers, just wondering if they are the same

and If they are I have a set for sale with pads with lots of life left and some braided brake lines, just asking for what I paid for them back, £60 + £10 postage

They are both different.

RVF is 65mm I think? I have seen the SP1 style Nissins on ZXRs too so the same as them as well

No idea what VFR is...but I could go and check ;)
