Very nice stunna, very nice. Looks exacly as a AMA race bike. Where did you get the brembo front calipers at? Are they radial? What about the rear caliper where did you get that from? Once again congrats on the bike.

It's even prettier in motion. I'm posting pictures of mine 'cuz I'm too lazy to wash it today and there are too damn many dead bugs on it.

Thanks dude


Thanks for all the kind words.

This is my 3rd RC51 and I have been plotting this out for the past 6 years and finally got to do it..
Just have to put on ohlins forks and brembo master cylinders now.

Then it gets into the ridiculous upgrades after that like superbike rotors and calipers with custom made superbike lines, HRC replica bodywork etc etc..

I have been putting some serious miles on it since i got it done and nothing in the world could make me happier than this thing does

simonkobe sells the rear caliper bracket.
