hey guys now the bike and i are off the road for this year i have finially started the front brake mods , the 6 pot callipers are adiquate to a point so i wanted more brake plain n simple , found a post on here and some pics of a busa with radial brakes but using the stock GEN I forks , it was GITZY that pointed me in the right direction and i did a contra with ROBMAC for the BKING radial callipers , when the parts arrived yesterday and it took me only a few hours to install them and they are spot on

enjoy the pics guys

So with that you wouldn't actually get the advantage of radial brakes would you? Just the advantage of the better calipers? (Because it is still mounted axially)

the next thing on the cards is a radial master to go with the callipers , and this will give me even better brakes and for me its all about better preformance on the bike ,

Yeah I was considering this too for the ZRX in the end I went with the nissin 4 pots cos it worked out cheaper.
The major advantage of using the radial mount calipers is pad choice.

It suits the USD's Kev.
I don't think it matches the RWU.

I was more talking about the different transfer of brake forces between radials and axials

i think when i get the bike back into shape after it had been painted i will do a full shake down on the brakes and go from there

HHMMM thems not B-King Calipers Kev! Nissin should be the brand Tokico are normally on Kawas aren't they.

Still better than the six pots though no doubt!

Ha! I missed that.
Yeah, as far as I know all B-Kings had Nissin's,
black or silver depending on the bikes original factory colour.
