Hi guys, will the front calipers from a k3 fit straight on to a k1?

Cheers

I think the front calipers are one of the very few parts interchangable between curvy and pointy.So Id say yes.

Whats worng with your old callipers?

Hi guys, I'm a newby that's just bought myself a lovely 2000 reg naked SV650 but I'm having problems removing the pins to replace the (badly worn) pads. Does anyone know if the 2nd generation SV's callipers will fit on to my 1st gen bike?

Thanks loads in advance if you can help

the fronts will fit

Thanks so much, it's the fronts that I'm having the issues with. Is there any difference whatsoever or are they exactly the same unit?

think they are the same apart from the pointy sv ones say the brand on the out side

I think so, probably gladius also. I have not tried those, only sv's and kawi and those in fact are same.
