FZR Calipers vs R6 & R1 calipers??
Posted: Wed Sep 10, 2014 7:41 am
Hi,
Am currently progressing through a naked conversion of a 1992 Diversion XJ600. Thanks for all the information already posted on the subject it is an invaluable source of information. I was wondering why the R1 & R6 ...dot callipers are needed rather than optional and could I just use the full assembly of the FZR as I already have the forks, wheel, callipers and both brake disks.
Cheers in advance for the reply

Parts List:
You will need the following:
1. FZR600 front forks: Any year from 1990 forward (1989 was an odd year so avoid those)
2. FZR600 front fender and fender brace
3. FZR600 front wheel: Again, 1990 forward
4. FZR600 axle and spacer (the FZR600 axle is smaller diameter and solid whereas the Seca II axle is hollow)
5. R6 bluedot calipers or R1 golddot calipers: Must be from 1999 to 2003 and look like the ones in the picture below.
6. Four (4) M10 x 1.25 x 30mm flange-head 10.9 rated bolts (to bolt the calipers to the forks)
7. One 32" and one 34" long brake line with straight 10mm banjo fittings
8. One M10x1.25 double banjo bolt for connecting the brake lines to the Seca II master cylinder
