Many years going back to the early 90's!
But...for simplification sake: 1996-99/750 & 1997-00/600
PM me if you need one.

One trick I like to perform is changing the brake pads with a blindfold on and 1 hand tied behind my back!

Another trick is to place a brake pad in a plain white envelope, press it to my forehead and foresee it's brand name and mileage like the great Carnac:

go to cheapcycleparts.com and check part numbers for the year the caliper came off of and your bike, easiest way for me anyways

The problem with that kbarrow is that you will not learn that a 97-00 600 fits because they are a different part number... 750 had a 6 pot and the 600 had a 4 pot. Tho I would use a 4 pot over that 6 pot crap.

problem with that is if it had a satin finish it was one part number on say a bandit and if it had a gloss finish on say a gsxr they use different part numbers.. manufactures are tricky like that and sometimes there is a huge difference in prices

excellent points john and tt750 :cheers i know the bandit front wheel will not fit on a 99 model though found that out after purchasing :suicide but im all about finding out what parts are interchangable for SRAD's is there a forum for that?
