Mismatched calipers

#1 PostAuthor: warren3200gt » Wed Aug 03, 2016 8:04 am

Getting to end of the 650 period custom rebuild and after digging out the front calipers from the parts bin it would appear I have a mismatched set.
One on the right is 650 with both inlet and bleed verticle, one on left is god knows what. Inlet is verticle, bleed is canted over 45 degs.
Obviously would like a matched pair so anyone got something I can match to either of these?
Happy to buy to make a pair or swop which ever one is not going to be used.

The one with bleed canted over maybe from a model with caliper mounted behind the fork leg :idea:

One will be for a B1, the other for behind the leg models, as has been mentioned.
What we got here, is failure to comunicate.
