Not a chance, They work like a charm and provide much better braking feel,

Everyone who has actually installed them provides positive feedback. I used them all last year on my 2001 SV650 and they provided a great improvement in my riding experience,

Enjoy the ride, and best regards,

Will the standard master cylinder work ok, mines a k8 naked
It works incredibly well, the standard front brakes just aren't up to the job if you like to press on. I have hagon progressive springs and 10w oil in my forks too btw.

Adam, (Dirty Dog) and I have been working together for the past year, with me selling the revised, and refined version of his GSXR Brake Caliper Adapter Brackets that Zoran over at TWF has decided to copy and sell, first at $80, reduced now to $65.

SV Racing Parts invested a lot of time and expense into this project and initially we needed to ask $100 for them to make it worthwhile, including all the mounting hardware, and your choice of Anodized Silver or Anodized Black,

I believe that this was a little less than they were selling for when Dirty Dog was having them machined up,

We refuse to be undersold, SV Racing Parts, new price is $65, Still with your choice of Silver Anodized, or Black Anodized finish, and all the mounting hardware.

Enjoy the ride, and best regards,
Blair

Does not look like copy to me. Design looks different, they are thicker and holes are closer to fork leg which makes this calipers flex less laterally. And something about pads hanging over beveled edge of rotor on yours that somebody complained.
at least that is what they claim here http://twfracing.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=564

Didn't you buy all wheel spacers from Zoran and made copies that you selling now?

Right, It is completely unique looking,

No one who used our Brake Caliper Adapter Brackets has said anything but positive things about it so lets leave that alone,

He obviously has his fan club, you may be one of them,

And if he wants to sell his product, go for it, but don't come on this thread with the sole intention of derailing it, under the guise of pointing out reasons why the prices are reduced.

Enjoy the ride, and best regards,
Blair

You right, I am his fan.
If he made those plates I am sure he did not use your as mock up . I am sure he did measure everything and did it on his own.
So, did you buy all his spacers and copy them? And you have balls to bitch about somebody making same product.
