    Harrison Calipers for GS750T, new fork, braided lines

    Hi,
    I have read about Harrison Billet calipers, and would like to modify my '82 GS750T to accept them (does anyone have feedback on them?). The GS750T only has 1 front rotor, and I would like to have 2. Can I just swap out the fork for a different GS750 fork that has the dual caliper mounts? Also, the rear brake is a drum, and I would like this as well to be a disk brake. How hard would it be to convert the braking system to disk, and is that something you would recommend? As a slight aside, I have been unable to find stainless steel braided brake lines for this bike, has anybody else found them?

    Here is a link to the calipers: http://www.billet.co.uk/index2.html?home.html~mainFrame

    Thanks!!

    A 16 valve GS 1100 swingarm & wheel assembly is a bolt on. You would just need to mount the rear master & pedal. So is an early GSXR front end which has better brakes & suspension already. Ray

      You should be able to fit fork legs from any dual rotor 750 model..... You could then fit the Kawasaki Twinpots with a bracket set from yours truly... haha

      Not as flash as them billet jobs though but would look ok polished!

      I would think a new wheel, caliper bracket, torque arm etc as well as a later model swingarm would see you right for a disk on the back.

      I have a caliper bracket & torque arm if you need them...

      As for lines... get Goodridge ones from www.z1enterprises.com you can measure up & choose your own length of line.
