Hey guys,
Are 2001 Yamaha YZF R6 Front Brake Calipers a direct swap with mounting, rotors, and break lines?

I don't think the brake lines will work. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong but I believe they are too short. The inverted forks on the R6 are shorter than the FZR ones.

The lines will work, but you must make sure they are for an 99-02 YZF R6, NOT the YZF600R as they will be to short and the banjo bolts are wrong as well.
