Morning all, quick question regarding my 1994 xj600s. I need to replace my front caliper. I've seen an xj900 which looks the same, will this fit? If not any recommendations?

It's possible that the mounting bolt centres are different. I know that's the case for the later twin-disc 600's, but not sure of the earlier ones.
If I remember correctly, the XJ900S (Diversion) ones are 100 mm centres - they are the same as the 4-pot "blue spot" calipers, hence the popularity of those as an easy upgrade for that model. I don't know about the pre-Diversion XJ900.
I've just checked a spare caliper I have for an MT-03 (the 660 single, not the later 300), which is the same as the ones fitted to several Yamaha models that don't use the blue spots, e.g. the earlier FZ6 and later XJ6 models, and those bolt centres measure 83 mm.
Finally, just a reminder that calipers are handed, so make sure you get one for the correct side!

Hi Stefan,
I've not known anyone try this - so you might be the first! Sorry, I know that's not much help!

Considering the price of the original calipers and their braking power I chose to convert them.......

They look nice, Stevan  . What bike are they off? Or did you get brand new? Did you make the brackets?? |
