05 brake swap

I know this is a question that has been brought up many times but no recent updated post since around 2012. But, I was looking to see if there were any new bikes brakes that were swappable to an '05. I know the older zx14s and the zx6 work but, do any of the gsxr (I heard 16s) bolt straight up?

the kawi line up makes it to easy... figure out what size rotor you want 300/310/320 and go for from there.. the 330mm from the 16+ is not a very good idea, as calipers do not fit with the oem wheel so easy.

The ZX6R Nissins work great on my ‘05, direct bolt on. I also did lines, pads, Brembo MC and Braking rotors. Did the trick.

This was the route I went and it worked great.
Yep, Nissins. Off of ebay for a decent price. Lines and a new MC. Brakes are as good or better then my full Brembo setups on some of the Ducati's I've owned.

You need Nissins from the first Gen ZX14, Concours and I believe the 07+ 636. Direct bolt on calipers.
