Default GSXR SRAD brakes fit SV?

I have at the moment a gsxr srad 750 currently sitting in a workshop, not running and in need of work.

Anyway.
Would it be possible to put the gsxr brakes on my k6 sv? As I imagine they are a bit higher spec despite the age gap. The brakes are in top condition which is a bonus.

Or am I sending myself on a wild goose chase?


Cheers

Twf adapter plates will do the job

Not for SRAD brakes they won't!!

TWF plates are meant for GSXRK1-3/SV1000 calipers, different shape and hole centers.


Best way to fit SRAD calipers is to steal entire front end

Ok

Is it worth swapping the front end over, will I gain anything from it?

If it's not found wanting, maybe not so much.

The SV's suspension is not the worst out there, I think I've seen pogo sticks with worse setup

Is there a chart somewhere on here which say what Calipers, from what bikes, fit with what brackets, to the SV650 ?

I ask, as for instance would a set of Hayabusa 6 pots fit ?

Thanks.
