Hi, I am not familiar with a comfort kit, but if your line length is the same as the 2003 SV650N model, I would the Galfer standard length SS lines for the N model, I have the Galfer SS lines in stock for $89.95 for the Front SS Lines, and $49.95 for the Rear SS Lines,

The other option is to measure your line length and let me know, I will have a set made up to your length specifications,

We always recommend starting off with new brake pads as we never know for sure how the calipers have been stored or used or what may have been spilled on the pads over time.

Email me directly at b.layton@svracingparts.com whenever you are ready, and I will get you looked after right away. Remember to let me know your color preference for the 4 Piston Tokico Brake Caliper Adapter Brackets, Silver or Black,

Enjoy the ride, and best regards,
Blair

On my SV with TWF brackets, I used my galfer lines that I had on the stock calipers. Works fine. And I have ZERO pad over hang. I think these brackets are just like Zorans, TWF. A great improvement.

I'm 99% sure Zorans brackets and these have been developed seperately. And I'm sure Blair has more integrity than to just buy stuff from TWF and copy dimensions. Hence why I would like to see some detail about overhang before I agree to fit these for anyone.

Any chance of a picture of the back of the caliper with the spring removed to show the disc track in relation to the pads to confirm this is not an issue?

better than that, YC i've got a set of these on the pointy I'll bring it round if ya wanna nosey.

Fast and very effective braking upgrade,

I almost bought the ones from Blair, which in the pictures I have seen of them look like twins to the TWF ones. A bud of mine is a personal friend of Zoran's and he got me a smokin deal on them... The reason I changed from the HSA ones was that the machining was off and they had to have shims to get them straight, a major pain. A friend had bought the HSA ones also and his were also off needing to be shimmed to make work.

I have been thinking about getting or making some of these adaptors but when I mocked some up they did not lie true to the disc.
I think the reason is that you are bolting the adaptor onto the outside of the mounts on the fork leg, the problem is that this face has not been machined and you are relying on the casting face being square which it is'nt.
The only answer is to get the lugs on the fork legs spot faced.

\anybody else reached the same conclusion.

Good enough for the stock calipers?

How much of a difference did you discover?
