07 R6 front calipers and M/C on 07 GSXR 750? Thinking of buying this off E-bay?

Would this be a better setup then stock? Also will Gixxer Galfer SS brakelines fit on Yami calipers?

HUGE step up! You will need 5mm spacers for it though. Lines should be fine. We have spacer if you like $10/set of 4.

The SS brake lines will not work well because they are the type with radius connector at the caliper. It will stick out to the side too much because the R6 caliper connector is on the side instead of the back. Just get the standard brake line.

Eric, do they really work a lot better? What about just using the R6 M/C. I have both available so thinking about doing this too.

work 100x's better! no flex in the caliper! also the lines CAN work! We have done over 30 GSXRs so far. Granted i prefer the Spiegler ones since the ends swivel. while the lines may not be perfect, they should "work" just fine.

same setup here the diference is that I have a 19x20 mc and will put a R1 16mm one.
since the bike has cero feell on the brakes is a piece of steel the brakes.

In my gsxr1000 K6 with R1 calipers the spacer was 3mm.

I just tested the brembo 20x19 and the R1 one, and the brembo big one is huge power, but cero feel the R1 gives almost that power you just need more travel, I will stay with the R1 one since this bike is for street use.

Are the R6 calipers and M/C legal in SS class?
