Trident rear caliper

Mike Fleming says...

I've just finished replacing the head gsaket on a '93 Trident Sprint
that has Triumph badged 4-pot Nissin calipers as standard. The calipers
are exactly the same as the ones fitted to my 2004 Daytona 955i and my
1990 GSX-R750L. They were a common fitment on many Suzukis, such as some
Gixers, 1200 Bandits, RF900s etc and almost every late model Triumph.

I ride way too fast to worry about cholestorol.

 

Rather brings to mind the term "parts bin specials" dunnit?

Oh yes, most definitely. The calipers in question are an excellent
design, and beautifully made - being hard anodised on the inside
surfaces as well they do not corrode like Tokicos do. It's no wonder so
many manufacturers use them. Honda use a similar version as well.

An engine, a frame, forks, tank, carbs...

Loke an Airfix kit but much bigger. And much heavier.

 

'Airfix kit'? Can you still get them?
