Hello !
If you do the modification, bear in mind that the right side Brembo caliper has larger mounting holes than the left one. So you also need the sleeve which goes into that hole (and has a spacer build in to center the pads on the discs so it comes in various thickness).

Awesome replies everyone.

I can still get the master cylinder from the same bike as well as the splitter and brake lines. I will like to go with braided lines but I still need to find either a brake specialist or hydraulic shop to get pricing.

I think I will look for a R65 rotor and solve that problem.

Cheers from sunny SA
