Caliper Interchangability

Hi

I have a question in regards to the calipers on a 2006 Speed Triple1050. They are the gold Nissin calipers. I am on the hunt for a set and I am having trouble locating a 1050 set but see a few Daytona 675 sets which look very similar

Are teh 675's the same as the 1050's or is there another bike that matches the 1050?

Thanks for your feedback

Cheers Stu

GSX-R 1000, 2005 and 2006. Direct fit. These are the black/charcoal colored Tokicos; the older gold ones do not fit. New brake lines & small washers under GSX-R bolt heads (to prevent bottoming) needed. Best get the radial GSX-R master cylinder from eBay too.

Do a search on this forum - there are plenty of threads describing the specifics of the Tokico upgrade.

Thanks Martin

Appreciate the advice - I'm on the hunt now!

Must be me but I'm hopeless at using the search function

Cheers Stu

The 1050 tiger for the same year will also fit your speedy

And i got mine for $36 US shipped..

Just get a 19mm master and you'll be fine radial or not, I run a Haybusa master and it's sweet, no more urine sample resivior.
