I think I'm gonna remove the rear brake caliper bracket so I can get a bigger tire on the rear. I just have to figure out where to relocate it. Any suggestions? :dunno:

um...how should i explain...

the brake bar can be mounted on the outside of the slot...take off the screw holding the rear caliper and you'll see what i mean...

Thats what I was thinking, But does it still work OK? And why should this post be deleted? It's not like I'm getting rid of it all together!!

Flip it upsidedown and install a GSXR caliper. The torque bar will be out of the way.The aluminum torque bars have a bend in them and they follow the shape of the swingarm. A mounting point will need to be welded to the bottom of the swingarm.

Common sense in not very common.

how did you get spools on your swingarm???

Drill a hole and bolt them on.
