Using Suzuki’s signature rib material to make the torque rod aluminum (*’\u03c9’*)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The torque rod with a rod end (spherical bearing) mounted quite far from the brake disk seems to be accepted these days, but…
The pad wears unevenly, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The more I look at it, the more I realize how well manufacturers really do their work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I cut one side of the plate, bent it, and welded it.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Since it’s my own bike, it goes fast ( \uff9f\u0414\uff9f)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The GSX-R750\/1100 GR and GU models use this rib material.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

K-N won’t work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

You could also use it for a hanging muffler bracket.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Since they’re hard to find lately, you could use this area as a base too.<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You shouldn’t be buying titanium bolts one by one, folks.
Swapping steel for aluminum is actually more effective in terms of weight savings alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wow! Pretty subtle ( \uff9f\u0414\uff9f)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Well, ultimately the torque rod won’t pull the caliper anymore, but for now…

A bit down the road I’ll be listing the support caliper and torque rod on Yahoo Auctions again, so if you’re interested, help yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the rear I’m using a ZZR1400 caliper. Of course it stays 220mm.
