Compare to this pic....
I do have one odd bracket because of someone else doing this on a 550 once so that works for me too..
It's the Aluminum kind so you'll need some longer bolts (8mm fine thread, you can get them online at Bolt Depot worst case but my local Truvalu does 50mm then you can cut them down to 45mm.)
Thanks Pos. Russ - looking good!

Pending payment the last set should be sold....
Anyone else who wants a set let me know, hopefully I'll get a few more sets in the next couple of weeks or so.

All steel construction this time (makes them cheaper plus allows use of thinner material so you can use stock bolts). Powdercoated Satin Black.
Weight penalty is negligable.
Includes brackets for the calipers & the rotor spacers.
$80 plus shipping (Usually about $6).
As usual these are fit at your own risk, not tested, DOT Certified etc.
The most important thing is to check tolerances carefully.
Remember that the speedo drive dust cover needs cutting down if you fit the CBR rotors.1980 GS1000G - Sold

Slight problem... 1 part is missing from the kits so currently trying to track them down or have re-made. Will keep everyone posted.
Unfortunately I am not going to be onsite personally until about November otherwise I could have pulled some ears & got this done quicker.... Unfortunately they are a pain in the butt for the people producing (more of a favour for me) so they don't get top priority.1980 GS1000G - Sold
