Trying to source a donor caliper and mount if possible.
Figures I'd tap into the collective experience for the search.
If you know of one, post as much of the following as you can
Brand, model, Year, and bonus points of you know the OD of the OEM rear rotor.
In a perfect world Id locate a donor that uses a 220,mm rotor size and a caliper mount that uses a strut to keep it from rotating it, vs a swing arm slide mount.
Brand does not matter as a donor other than if you find something obscure like a 1983 DesmoLamborginie HyperSport Soft tail...it may be a bit tought to find a good used part cheaply.
Thanks in advance.

missing the noise, not the vibes. However never say never!

The simple solution seems to be a Suzuki TL1000S
Parts are plentiful and cheap. Even new

if you go the tl1000 route i think i have a torgue arm for one of those . i have a look in the cave and you can have it cause il never use it.

Re: Name Every bike with a underslung rear brake caliper
Thanks mate, but I'll be making one to fit... custom swing arm and all that, so stock bits don't fit.fabiostar wrote:if you go the tl1000 route i think i have a torgue arm for one of those . i have a look in the cave and you can have it cause il never use it.
used caliper and mount on the way..if in decent condition I'll consider rebuilding it, if not, I'll use it for mock up then buy a new caliper and bracket.. pretty reasonable at my cost.
