08 Busa brakes

[pan]

I haven't read through all the details about the new bike, but in the images it appears they have gone to 2 pot brakes instead of 3 pot. Is this correct?

2 POT radial mounted brakes on smaller diameter disks.
Totally new front forks and lighter wheels as well.

I suggest you read the specs sheet. It is full of surprises that make me WANT ONE NOW!

Where's the radial master cylinder ......to compliment the radial calipers ? ...PM Kawa for a price maybe ?

Nice work there Glen.

Thank you Sir. I'm with you, I am liking it more each day. As a base it has super potential. I don't want to be anywhere near you when you have to fuel the system again. (If you are considering going Stage 3). I'll do a BB version if you like.

i reckon a few people out there will be eating their words when this think gets reviewed and tested.
I read on one post somewhere that the orig Busa was considered a pig ugly bike but then when the reviews of top speed etc came out..everyone said it was the ants pants...funny how people change...lol

As suzukis have the same space between rotors and the busa triples were further apart than the gixxers with radial mount calipers, it will be interesting to see if they offset the rotors further apart or offset the radial mount in or narrowed the triple tree.I,m too far down the road with my approach but methinks latest spec busa forks will be hot property at the wreckers.

Way to Go Glen. That is an awesome makeup photo.

You should be working in the Slowzuki design department mate.
