Curious to see what omar says tho

 

Just got this from hoheys site. I guess its the rotor that causes it not to sit flush

• The 03-06 CBR 600RR , 03-05 Yamaha R6 ,03 04 gsxr 1000 and the f4i pegs are lowered and moved back and out for better peg position! !
• The 01-03 GSXR 600 and 750 have the pegs moved out two inches because of the big tail section
• THE 07 600RR pegs are located 2-1/2 inches lower and 3 inches wider (Than stock)
• All other omr subframe cage models are in the stock location except they are rotated on their axis so they don't fold up unless you fold them up, this also puts your foot on the grippy part of the peg during a wheelie.
• omr subcages are available for all makes and models but only the ones listed above are available for shipping

And can I do the same with the F4izzle? Make a spacer for the rotor to use all the pad? Im really thinking about pickin up the new FTI bracket and itd be nice to use the whole pad on both calipers

 

I ask because ill be running the ho-hey version, is this pad wear an issue with his bracket?

 

not flush isn't really accurate , the fact that the caliper hits the wheel if you put it down low enough to use the whole pad is the real problem

 

Gotcha on the not flush part. Is this whole thing a spacer

 

just saw neals post.

thats weird...so if you were to get a larger rear rotor (which one id need to use is beyond me) wouldnt it then cause the normal foot caliper to bind?

or roger, what if you were to trim...the caliper??

 

yes but it's no big deal , you can just run the pads for a few days and then you can see exactly where they need to be trimmed or you can just grind teh tops of the pads at an angle so when they wear they dont touch each other and cause your brakes to fail

 

I know a few people here who've had the hohey on their bike for a while and never trimmed their pads which I think is retarded since it only takes about 20 minutes to remove the caliper, trim the pads and put em back on but they've been riding on those pads for a while and are still good

 

the ho hey is already designed to put the caliper in a certain position so grinding the caliper wouldn't do any thing and yes a bigger rotor would require you to move the stock caliper out

 

yep , it moved the rotor out far enough so i could lower the caliper all the way down with out hitting the wheel

 

Hmmmm so it should do the same if I get a spacer made for the F4i then right? Do you know off hand whats the size (diameter I guess) of the spacer? I know it'd be different for the F4i but just trying to get an idea in case I do decide to actually attempt it lol.

 

yeah. what a pain in the dick. i guess ill just be trimming pads then.. so the issue untimately is not that the pads hit the rotor an an "angle" but that the rotor just dosent fill the caliper channel. got it.

 

adding a spacer wont work if you have the ho hey because the caliper is already in a fixed position

 

I think it sucks ***** but at least it gives you a reason to check your pads lol. I seem to forget the little **** a lot

 

right and if you dont trimm the pads eventually the tops will touch and cancel out each other so trimming the pads before they wear too much is important

 

 

Dayum that sucks. So Im guessing it'd be the same with the new FTI setup. So with yours you added the spacer and then made the bracket I guess to figure where its gotta be to use the whole pad. Nice. HH & FTI should do something like that then when making their brackets. Sell the brackets with spacers

 

Okay I had it sorta right lol.
