If you look at the different big bikes that the Japanese produce you'll notice over the years they are often changing from 4 pot to 6 pot calipers and vice-versa, as they bring out a new model, it's almost as if they can't make up their minds :lol:

I would never have brakes just for the bling. Primarily brakes need to work and be reliable, and if they are bling. Then that is an added bonus. :thumbup:
