For the discs, try looking in the EBC catalog here:

http://www.ebcbrakes.com/Assets/ebc2005ukmccat.pdf

Find the replacement disc for the year of GSXR forks you've got, then cross reference them to the other bikes that use the same discs, then off to e-bay to find some discs from one of those bikes.

Done that and just to help everyone out a bit i'll post my findings here:

GSF 400 S/VS/V-V/VZ-V Bandit 95-97
GSXR 400 J/RR/RAK (GK73A) 88-90

RF 400 RP/RR/VR/RT/RVT/RV-V 93-97

GSF 600 S/T/ST/V/SV/W/SW/X/SX/Y/SY/K1/SK1/K2/SK2/SK3/K3/K4/SK4 Bandit 95-04

RF 600 RP/RR/RS/RT/RV 93-97

GSX 600 FK/FL/FM/FN/FP/FR/FS/FT/FV 89-97

GSX 600 FW/FX/FY/FK1/FK2 98-02

SV 650 X/SX/Y/XY/K1/K2/SK1/SK2 99-02

GSX 750 FK/FL/FM/FN/FP/FR/FS/FT/FV 89-97

GSX 750 FW/FX/FY/FK1/FK2 98-02

all of those use the same kind of front discs MD3003 LS and RS according to EBC, thanks for the catalog Goose!

Btw, it's a bit surprising the B6's use the same too... quite hefty brakes for a 400, it would seem!

Could you give me some models on which they were standard? Like B12?

nothing on ebay specifically mentions a gsxr1100

those busa ones are the same as srad and tlr.
the 4 pot ones from the older 750 1100 work as do rgv 250 and others im sure , Doesnt the bandit 1200 have 6 piston front breaks? or is that something they put on to?

Farre · « **Reply #23 on:** March 17, 2006, 09:54:19 AM »

ah yes about rgv250 calipers.. i'm a little bit puzzled, i found rgv discs and calipers on ebay, but i'm not sure if they fit.
in the ebc list i found several types some use the 'good' ones but other don't. Bad thing is, i don't know which category vj22 fits in :-(

busa 's look like they fit to need someone to measure them before you buy.

ahh, the perfect guy to ask would be Daytona

Perfect timing of him!!

rgv250 rgv 250 vj22 - USD forks + axle thats the model with the same forks a a gixxer 400 gk76 those brakes fit.

Hello Alex. Yes these would make a great mod on any with the 2 puck calipers. I'm pretty sure they bolt rite on the 1G B12? The spread is 3.5" or a 32nd 16th more 3 9/16" ? Old calipers and older eyes these days. Looking at my two pics of bandit and busa the mount holes look to be the same between the two.

Here is a big pic you could use if you need any other of my to the MM measurements!! If you want i could take it all apart and send em to ya to try!!!

You see the stuff on ebay? Looked at the kawi 1400 the other day! All there B parts are so compact!! Wonder if they don't last as long or are made of better stuff??

The 2G B12 has 6-piston (Tokico) front brakes. Never had any breaks on mine though.

These are the same as the Busa, etc.
Several Kawasaki models use these too - like the ZRX, ZX-9, etc.

The 1G B12 has 4-piston Nissin calipers. The fork mouting is the same as the 2G though, so you can upgrade a 1G to 2G brakes. (Just be sure to use the Tokico banjo bolts in the calipers, the Nissin bolts have a different pitch.)

The 3G has 4-piston Tokicos, don't know if they interchange though since we haven't had anyone here that's taken possession of one yet.

I might have a set for sale, since I have two at the moment.
