    GSXR caliper compatibility questions

    I am building a track bike and just found out my 04 600 that has 02 1000 forks are bent. My calipers are from on 02 600. My question is what other year forks will the 02 calipers bolt too? Or should I just ditch the calipers too for new ones? Is there a list of what year parts match up? I have found alot about sv swaps, but I need GSXR to GSXR swaps.

    Not my money so its easy for me to say. But if you have to replace it all any ways you might as well throw the best stuff on there.

    If you can run either 06 R6 and up or 09 GSXR 1000 Monoblocks....I will have a set of 06 gsxr 600 calipers if you want to try those but being the year they are a bit more limited to what you can use..

    Re: GSXR caliper compatibility questions

    I am not sure but I would ask on the WERA forum there may be one or two that have done the swap....lots of knowledgeable racers on there. I would think that they are very similar but then again a slight Diff may be a Lot .


    I will throw a post up on the WERA BEEB and see what shakes........................


    Here u go...

    Re: GSXR caliper compatibility questions

    all the steering necks and triple trees from 2000-2009 are all the same on gixxers. anything between those years will fit. as far as calipers go, they all should do the trick, if u go with 06 r6 calipers you will need a 3mm spacer ( i think its 3 mm lol) hope this helps

    Here is a Reply and Thanks Frenchy..................if it is longer run a set of fork caps and drop it accordingly

    I'm assuming you're using the 08 triple also? If so, bolts right on, no issues. the forks are a bit longer.
