brakes
 
will gsxr 600 k1 brakes callipers fit a curvey or will i need to make sum brackets?

They do not fit as a straight swap. I do believe that there are now brackets that can be bought to allow this modification.

The seller goes by Highspeedassault, not heard much from him lately though. There was also a guy on Oldschoolsuzuki who made a set to fit SRAD 6 or 4-pots to a Bandit 6- should be compatible I think.

TBH though, unless you've already beefed up your forks or you weigh about 9 stone it's not going to benefit you more- you'll get more braking benefit from better forks than better brakes, I reckon, since the SV's braking's more restricted by soggy forks than by the calipers. That's assuming you're not freakishly light like some people :) And once you get into that... Well, calipers, mounting plates, springs, oil, ideally emulators, it all adds up- could end up more expensive than a whole transplant. That all depends how mechanically competent you are of course.

Not sure. I believe that they can be ordered from the US. This topic was discussed a few months ago. Try doing a search using the search facility on the forum.
