where to find a small caliper and disc was created by nads.com
Anyone have any ideas where I could find a small disc and caliper to use for a back brake? I don't want the gargantous kz type, I'm converting a Suzuki gs rim on the back of my 76, I'm trying to save weight.

It sounds like you have the abilities to.make something fit, perhaps the brakes off a small bike, like a honda rebel. My wife has a 2004 rebel, and if you would like any measurements from its brakes just say the word.

Mine:
04 Honda rebel 250(wifes)
04 GSXR 750(bolt on galore)
98 CBR 600F3(filter, pipe, adjustable cam sprokets, dyno tune)
76 KZ900A (LTD gauge pods, crash bars, LTD(style)pipes, dyna coils and ignition,headwork and mild port cleanup by cavanaugh racing, K&N filter pods, heck I dunno.

I am using an early R1 rear caliper on my KZ1000 project, it is very small and light. They are cheep on Ebay.


Which Suzuki wheel are you going to use?

1980B4 1000
1978 Z1R
1978 B3 750
