1WG rear brake calipers.....

Post by alext »

Im currently fitting FZR400 running gear (wheels, forks and brakes) to my 350lc.

I dont have an FZR400 1WG rear brake caliper, and the supply of them from thief-bay appears to have dried up.

does anyone know what other bikes use the same rear caliper?

second to that, what axle diameter/rear disc diameter has an FZR400 3TJ got?

if the disc is the same and the axle is the same, an underslung caliper would give me more room to play with and also make the torque-arm situation a bit easier.

thanks for any help

ALex.

Yeah... The joys of being self employed- you wake up in the middle of the night and can't get back to sleep! :x
