R1 brake upgrade

Post by scotty »

Guys,
Sorry for posting lots of stupid questions.

My 1993 FZR1000 has had the front brakes upgraded to blue R1 calipers. How do I find out what year of R1 caliper was fitted and part no for pads...

Cheers Scotty

I've got silver spots from a 2010 Fazer and they take than same pads too, I find HBC HH pads work well.
