Would you mind telling me where you sourced the brake calipers on your 'blade?

 

ebay

 

OH DEAR....i was hoping for summink easier than that...

 

...my 916...they look the same..ROFL!

 

you've said it: they LOOK the same

 

Hiya mate ,

Yeah they came from ebay thats the only reason I bought them as Im not paying retail on those fookers £650 each caliper

They do come up on ebay from time to time as a month ago I pointed a mate out to another pair which he won and loves em too

If you do want to buy them new then I use Harris Performance

www.harrisperformance.co.uk

They truely are AWESOME brakes mate and the only caliper better Brembo make are found on MOTO-GP Bikes which are just the mono bloc version of mine to stop caliper flex , I use mine with the proper racing brembo master cylinder/lever and I have NEVER needed more than one finger to stop at most 2 when I try stoppies but thats more for feel than lack of power
GET THEM YOU WONT BE SORRY

 

The only thing my calipers have in common with yours is the name you coooooooont

 

think you could buy them used from a BSB race team.everyone there is using radial mount monoblocks now so there should be plenty around

the latest monoblock caliper are a fourpot with four separated pads.will see if i can find some pictures of it mounted on our race bike

Thats exacly what my calipers are but not four pads per caliper even the mono bloc version of mine arent 4 paders

Titainium pistons , quick release pad system so the calipers dont need to come off to change em over
A set of pads for my calipers are over £100

 

DP

 

AND AGAIN

 

i know.we are sponsored so we dont care think the cost for the caliper in norway is around 1200£ each.bloody expensive

but if anyone would like to have similar looking calipers they should look to the ducati 999 R.they are radial mount so brackets must be made or bought from harris.unless you have the øhlins road and track fork that are supplied with brackets for radial and standard mount

Yeah thats what they cost over here for the Mono-bloc radial mounts

If ever a pair should feel the need to dissapear and make their way into my hands youll be handsomely rewarded

 

you never know.we only have 3 sets of calipers this season and i think we need them but at the end of the season you never know.

by the way we are runing a Yamaha R1 in the norwegian superbike championship,have been norwegian champs since 1998 in superbike and twice nordic champs with a Yamaha R7 with all the factory bits you can get your hands on.

The R7 is fore sale if anyone is interrested.price depends on what spec it should be delivered in
