Wow! We finished measuring the lightweight caliper…
Unfortunately, they’re exactly the same… Suzuki really gets me…
Center to mounting distance, center to torque rod mounting distance, mounting width, mounting pitch…
Piston diameter (the width is slightly different).
By the way, the GSF1200’s rear caliper weighs 870g compared to the R1000 at 590g!! That’s 280g lighter
(excluding pads and pad pins). That’s incredible!
It all adds up like this… I’d love to get under 200 kilos…
It’d be even lighter if we removed the fairing, but… it’s all about looks! At high speed it barely makes a difference, or rather
it’s easier without it…
