question about fzr600r calipers

In the states, this was the upgrade to the FZR600. In other places, this is called an FZR. Either way, many of the components of the US YZF600r fit onto the US FZR600.

Yep. All of the non radial ....r1/r6/thundercat blue spot calipers. Gold spot calipers. Silver spot calipers ..all bolt on. No mods needed.

From info gleaned on the YZF forums, R6 and R1 calipers bolt up. Thundercat ones do not.
