Not sure about a 'market' but I do think they perform & look pretty good: http://www.ducatisportingclub.com/at...8&d=1149892419 |
Cheap way would to be getting them made out of 10mm Dural plate with some alloy spacers and mount the plate on the outside of the caliper mounts instead of on the inside. Not as pretty but can be effective |
Checkout what I mean here http://www.fjmods.btinternet.co.uk/BrakeUpgrades.htm The ZX-9R pic and the four pot conversion |
I bought a pair of Showa non-adjustable forks with the 65mm caliper spacing for £130 - surely it's a better option to go with the *better* forks as well as better brakes? There's a pair on ebay at Buy It Now for £199, a front left-hand for £43 BIN (bargain if you can find a right-hand one!), a pair with yokes in the States for £179 BIN, a BRAND NEW set in Holland for £400 BIN or a VERY nice set of new Ohlins to fit from the DP catalogue - a snip at £2,000 !! There are also quite a few pairs that were more expensive. They are out there and imho you'd be better off with these than the old Marzocchi leaky seals forks! |
Maxton are quite sure that the seals are not the problem with Marzocchi's. They say it's the OEM bushes.... They machine new bushes (tighter tolerances) and then fit new seals and dust caps. If the bushes are right the seals don't go... ....Well that's the theory:D Jason Boswell had a pair Showa's that he decided not to sell, so I got the Marzocchi's.... Now JB's selling the Showa's....again doh!:rolleyes: "Only joking JB" |
So buy the Showa and sell the Marzocchi? Keep them as spare? Save your money and spend it on trackdays to make yourself a lot faster than spending it on brakes would? ;) |
Motopike.com My Bro can get 'em made in HE30 at £100/pair (maybe a bit less if there's reasonable interest) and they'll be top quality. He's currently developing some tasty high quality racing gear (fasteners, clip-ons, etc) to be marketed at the right money, so keep an eye on his site. Reckon I could peruade him on some discount for DD racers too. |
Motowheels sell them https://www.motowheels.net/prodinfo....2E2506%2ER%2FL came across them while I was looking for a set of these https://www.motowheels.net/prodinfo....mber=OH%2D1593 Which I need a set of 108mm ones for the 998R |
Thanks Kev' I had already found the site and unfortunately they are "Out of Stock".....and look like being so for 'a long time' 'cos Brembo don't list them anymore :( No problem....I'll get some made....I've got enough pics' with respective measurements 40mm - 65mm as references just a matter of scaling up. Thanks also to Frank for pic' and dimensions....they will come in useful. |
