No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationI have a big mess in the mancave at the moment so give me a few days and I might have a solution by using some readily available BMW Brembo calipers


They are K/R1100 and would only need an adapter that would be easy to make

Probably some time today I might be able to actually get to my Z13 as its been buried at the back of the cave for some time.

Go the the german site and buy theirs for about 1200 euro.

www.z1300.de/

Pre-tech in England make a direct 6 piston bolt on for about the same money.
There's a picture of the set up on Phil's bike in the gallery.

They also do bespoke 4 piston calipers which are more than adequate. To answer the original question I'm not aware of any other calipers that are a direct fit.

1199 Euro is about $1600 US! That German site is very pricey.I want to do the same project but I'm on a budget as well.Here is a link from the VTX forum in which someone did the same conversion. www.vtxcafe.com/showthread.php/44351-6-P...liper-Upgrade-How-To
This will give you a idea to make your brackets.
