Finally ordered GP4RX nickel calipers

[1busa]

did u post up the info on this? the adapters/spacers and all... ? if so... I really don't have to do this....

Dude just look through the ORG there’s a bunch of threads on this. I’ve got info on a few of my threads detailing this. Been a few years so I don’t have all the info off the top of my head but yeah..... you buy those calipers, stainless lines and a Brembo MC and that’s all you need

Those Calipers you posted up are pretty and I’m sure perform better than mine or the 1’s listed on eBay but for the average rider especially on the street gets the job done. Setups like mine are more than enough. I run a shorty front brake lever and only need 2 fingers to stop now. When I 1st got my Busa it scared the Sh@t outta me cause I had to grab a fistful of front brake and hope those OEM wooden calipers would bite

sounds good.... thread over

it could be done for cheap.... but I want to use some really good parts... these calipers are as good as it gets without going to a full racing caliper (the monoblock calipers don't have dust seals)… but the intent here is gonna be the end result... and along with listing the adapters AND SPACERS and fluid resoiviore… links for everything.... and in that link u provided... I tried to buy just his adapters.. he said no... " the adapters are more xpensive than the calipers" … didn't give me any more information.... and be careful with any used caliper... I would at least have it rebuilt... and be sure the adapters are billet or the material used.... and if ure gonna upgrade brakes I would at least look into HP calipers.

Ok. I have a genII, so I don’t need calipers. Before the busas came out with the Brembos, I went ahead and bought some low miles Tokico monoblocks out of a gsxr1000 (bolt right up to the genII) and added stainless limes a brembo MC, so I’m good on brakes. Looking forward to the setup you end up with and parts/pricing list.

[mabupa]

Yeah that is a good seller! I’ve bought a few parts off him through the years. He always seems to have used high end race parts for Busas.

Pretty much the same setup I’m running. The adapters, calipers, SS lines and a Brembo MC and Boom! You now stop on a dime with 2 finger braking and you didn’t break the bank

He does have good stuff at very fair prices. I’m also happy with the brake setup I ended up with. I’m no racer, but the feedback these brakes provide is awesome. Is like I’m grabbing the rotors with my own fingers to slow her down. Lol

anyone interested... found a shop in the UK that will custom machine adapters(no spacers) and possibly work with me on all necessary banjo bolts/complete tidy kit(maybe) https://www.harris-performance.com/product/harris-front-rear-caliper-plates-conversions/

[ali123]

cancel harris.. found these... at least they look robust and are billet and anodized....

[Red05]

I like those! Are those one off or are more available?

I have speed bleeders on my bike and like them better than the mityvac. But I have that too.

I've been thinking of going with the gen2 front end or the gen2 brake setup myself.

[ali123]

I like them a lot , don't forget to buy the pair bro !!

toad... the bike has ebc pro lite rotors on it.. I looked them up... 213 a piece.... the brake teks are 287... u think I should bother with the rotors? these rotors look almost new..... wshuddya think? https://www.motosport.com/product?a...&pssource=true&rkg_id=0&segment=badger-street

[ROADTOAD1340]

You might as well use the EBC for now if in good nick . Rotors are going to wear bro anyway , and need changing eventually , so update then .

Hahahaha , well I guess you , are a bit like me , in that we are more than a little acceptable to trick motorcycle pieces .
The Brembo pads fitted standard to the GP4-RX are good pads , but for some even better upgrade , you could try Ferodo CP1 Ceramic for your next set . I am running them with my setup , and they are truly an upgrade .

[ali123]

on a side note... these are the ONLY ADAPTERS that are available in 108mm trim that are made from 6061 t5(tempered) billet aluminum... pretty much as strong as it gets.... the other adapters were 6060... and everything from AGRAS is 6060 also I believe.... anyhow... u must write to this guy on ebay….. https://www.ebay.com/usr/trc0928 he is the ONLY one I found with 6061 material

sounds good.... thread over
