    gs1000g Front brake conversion?

    Hi all, just wondering if anyone had any info on front brake conversions for GS1000s? I heard you can get adaptors for GSXs. Any help would be great!

    Search out Salty Monk's brake upgrade thread. Lots of good info there.

      Either go with Ed's suggestion and follow Salty Monk's work or throw on some later GSX750 / 1100 calipers and discs - straight bolt on.

      75 PC50 - the one with OHV and pedals...
      75 TS100 - being ridden (suicidally) by my father

        My 1000G was / is upgraded to the twin
        pots. Works fine on those bikes.

        I have 1 bracket set left currently.
