Great Caliper
Have these installed on the Gen2 Hayabusa, also used is the radial underslung bracket from galespeed as well, couldn't have been happier with the looks and performance. The entire set up is far lighter than the stock caliper and the breaking is really good over stock breaks. Wanted the radial set up over the axel set up and they look really nice and tidy.

Good Brake comparable to the Brembo P2 84mm--just one hitch
Nothing much to say about this caliper; it's a caliper--it soaks up heat in exchange for being beefier and heavier than your typical OEM caliper. The finish and quality is honestly miles better than my Brembo GP4-RX's, which is why I opted for this caliper versus Brembo's equivalent rear caliper, the P2 84mm in Nickel. I don't expect it to perform better, it's just a heatsink afterall and they're all the same material but it's cheaper, looks better, and has titanium cross bolts. There is one major drawback though, and that's replacement pads. Brembo being the bigger brand name means you'll never have trouble finding replacement pads and have your pick from Vesrah to OEM to Carbone Lorraine, etc. Galespeed, on the other hand, well, you're stuck with OEM, and maybe Vesrah, if they reply to my inquiry.

Installation is easy, otherwise it is a struggle.
Normal master cylinder of MT-10 (1/2") The "L" is too large and the "Brake" does not work at all. It is essential to check in advance whether an appropriate Master Cylinder can be installed.
Brake Pads are exclusive products, and so far no other company seems to offer compatible products, so you have no choice but to buy expensive pads.
