Anyone fitted Z1 Calipers?

Post by Jimbo1000 »

Has anyone fitted dual disks and Z1 calipers to their H2? Are the calipers a direct fit?
I'm thinking that it might be a reasonable and period lookong mod to improve front brake performance given that the correct r/h caliper is so hard to come by. :smt102

I've got them on mine but forks are also from Z1. It's a very worthwhile upgrade. Dave at Z power can supply repro calipers
and tell you if they will fit H2 forks
