4-Piston Brake Caliper Stage6 R/T MK2 Orange

Description

Stage6 R/T 4-Piston Brake Caliper radial w. brake pads orange, for excellent stopping power. Stage6 R/T (R/T for Racing Team) developed a high-end aluminium brake caliper with 4 brake pistons that will provide maximum braking power to your scooter. No matter if you're riding on the road or hitting the race track - this caliper will provide more stopping power and, accordingly, more safety. Braking later might give you those milliseconds you need to win the race.

Easy to install, compatible with your original brake cylinder, no additional modifications are required. The radial mounting allows for simple and stable installation, such as can be seen on GP bikes and superbikes. Available in several colours.

The adapter bracket needed for certain models has to be ordered separately!

Attention: on Gilera Runner this caliper cannot be used with Stage6 280mm Oversize brake discs. On models with 12" wheels (Rocket / Spy), the caliper cannot be used with discs 220mm and larger.

You should replace the brake fluid and bleed the system. If you don't know exactly how to do it, get help from a workshop.

4 pistons
bolt spacing: 82mm
colour: anodized orange

Notes and Safety

Brake caliper

The brake caliper is an important part of the braking system. The brake pads are located in the caliper and are "clamped" by the caliper piston. The piston is driven by the brake fluid and presses the brake pads against the brake disc.

The brake caliper must always be in good condition and must not leak. If you want to repair the caliper on a small budget, you can use one of the many caliper repair kits from major brands like Brembo, AJP, Nissin, etc.

Racing caliper

After tuning measures, where the performance of a motorcycle is increased, the brakes must also be readjusted. You can install oversize kits instead of the original brake discs, or use racing calipers with multiple or larger pistons. Some tuning calipers are made of materials that allow better heat dissipation.

Especially for enduro and motocross bikes, there are various caliper upgrade kits. There are also complete brake kits with brake disc, brake pads, caliper, brake line and brake master cylinder.
For 50cc scooters and motorcycles, we offer 2-piston calipers that considerably improve braking performance. Most calipers are universal and are adapted to a specific vehicle via a brake caliper adapter.

Changing a brake caliper

To install a brake caliper, you need relatively few tools. However, you should make sure that the copper washers on the banjo bolt that holds the brake hose are in perfect condition so that no fluid can leak out.
You'll also need new brake fluid, as you'll need to bleed the brake system. You must remove all air bubbles from the system; you can bleed manually or with a special brake bleeder.
