Few bent coathangers would do the job I think. Or a GSXR front end with the Brembo fitment kit

voila- a better (and more expensive) bike

Humm I wonder if plates will be made to fit other bike brakes to the SV. R1, R6, CBRs and Kawa ZXs all have decent front brakes, far better then the SV, and are possibly less in demand then GSXRs front ends are. It would be nice to able to have a wider choice of brakes to buy on Scambay.

For those who don't want the high performance calipers that are the easiest in the world to find, we do offer one other model which is for the calipers from the 1989 Moto Guzzi Carbera GTS Special Edition, which was only sold in Morrocco. If you know any Morroccan Moto Guzzi dealers, contact them ASAP, before supplies are exhausted.
 J/KSeriously, Gixxer brakes are the only ones we will have. Cheers

and GSXR calipers really aren't hard to find on ebay, at least not in the UK.

Im a season and a bits racing in on my SV so um not talking theory here.
Your caliper choice doesnt need to JUST be gixxer The 4 pots from a zx9r are basicly identical and if ya wanna go totally ott try a set of 6 pots from a later model gixxer750 or zx9r. Fair warning though -in my opinion even the 4 pots on the ROAD are overkill.You need to be riding the bike fast regularly to need them. I was running 6 pots and was literally sledging the front end --maybee Im a bit ham fisted -I went to 4 pots and what an improvement |
