    GS750 disc upgrade

    Does anyone know of a manufacturer who does front and rear ventilated discs for the GS750's?

    Im after some ventilated discs for my GS750, 1977B.

    It has the twin front discs but I dont know what they are off (GT750 I think)

    EBC makes a Prolite for the rear, as they were the same all thru the GS models (except the shafties) For the front, I would simply take the discs you have and have them drilled at a machine shop. Find a good pattern, perhaps someone here who has done them could hook you up with one.

    -OR-

    Salty Monk and a couple of the other guys are in the midst of working out the details for using Honda CBR rotors with Kawasaki twinpot slider calipers on the older bikes. You'll need a couple of brackets for the calipers, and some spacers for the rotors, and of course to source the CBR rotors and Kawi calipers... MASSIVE upgrade from stock however...and couple that with Stainless brakelines, you'll have double the stopping power...

      For the front, you can upgrade your calipers to ones from a GS1100 (not an L) and then use the Suzuki rotors with the holes in them.

        ......or like TCK said, you can get them drilled. Looks old school cool.

          Those will fit and line up on the old 750 forks? Wow, i didnt know that! Thanks for the tip Bruce! That will come in handy on the Cafe I think. Was going to do the Kawi/CBR thing on it, but i think it would look TOO modern on that bike. Saving THAT for the 78 750 Superbike project I will be starting on.....eventually....The ES suspension mods come first!!
