    Trying to find some time to do some measuring to see what it would take to mount the twin pots off this junked RF900 on a G. If I get any answers I'll follow up with those as well.

      Aren't they 4 pots?

      I'm specifically interested in whether someone has used the brackets I had made up on an 1100E with the kawasaki twinpots with either GS550 rotors or CBR rotors - I want to know if it worked.

      Thanks,

      Dan

        Gotcha, and not meaning to hijack.

        No, they are Nissin twin pots, and the rotors look to have the same bolt pattern, but again, have to confirm that..

          Really? Got any pics of them (calipers I mean)?

          What diameter are the rotors?

              Yep, that's what I get for thinking. The RF discs are a 5 bolt pattern, the GS are 6. I haven't had a chance to see if the RF could be drilled to work, but I will. Pics coming later today. The diameter of the RF discs is 12".
