Rear brakes on an '89R

Post by jonny bravo »

Evening all.

My rear caliper is dying and it's time for a replacement. Before I buy another 26 yr old one - does anything newer fit without modification?

Already have R1 calipers on the front - wondering if anyone's popped them on the back?

Cheers!

Bit of advice. Buy a good bed and a good pair of shoes, because if you aren't in one you'll be in the other.

Sorry jonny. I've sent you on the wrong route. I thought it was in there but it's not. I have it saved on my computer but my computer is in the sick bay. Sorry matey. I should get it back soon. :nod:

I think a 900 Diversion is the same as a standard Fzr one. :)
