Cool - but seeing as you have them fitted...hows about the Sp1/Blade/CBR6rr style Nissins that are even better than them?

You'd want a new m/c from the same bike but they are the brakes I use on my '30 and they are hard as nails.

Thanks CMSMJ1, but the SP1/CB400 Vtec/Blade/600RR gold Nissin calipers are quite expensive here and it slightly lower than Brembo Goldline caliper. If I have the budget, for sure its Brembo :lol:

btw, m/c for '30 and '35 share the same internal diameter cylinder size (14mm). no wonder why they are hard as nails. but, '29 are just smaller than that which is 12.7mm.. I'm afraid that later it will be a problem (e.g jammed brakes) if i'm still using the stock '29 m/c with these '35 caliper.

Are they four-piston calipers?

They're cheap on US ebay. I got a set of good SP1 calipers for less than USD$100 to my door.

no, you have to do a custom bracket to fit those calipers.

guys, i have seen 29 fitted with RC30 calipers. is it a straight swap coz i dint see any customised bracket. or maybe its using RC30 forks as well ?
