MC 18 R5K rear wheel brembo caliper bracket

]Hi Guys,

Recently I brought a RS 250 Magtek wheel 4.50 x 18 and modified the sprocket carrier to fit it in the back of my 1989 R5K MC 18. The RS 250 also uses a smaller diameter disc which again reduces weight. I then decided to really make the wheel as light as possible I would remove the standard rear caliper and supporting arm and replace it with a under slung brembo caliper much like Tyga supply for the MC 21 and MC 28. For the caliper bracket to work without the torque arm requires a locating lug to be welded to the inside of the swing arm. I sourced the rear brembo caliper out of a 98 ducati monster. It looks pretty trick in the modelled pictures and obviously takes a whole lot of weight out of the back wheel assembly.

This caliper bracket is specific for a MC 18 R5K with a 4.50 x 18 RS 250 rear wheel only.

I have had the bracket modelled up and priced to manufacture which of course depends on how many I get made. I can post some pictures of the modelled bracket if anybody is interested?



Dave
