    Can any body put me in touch with someone who can manufacturer calipers spacers? I need them for a 2009, a set one millimetre thicker than standard and the next set two millimetre thicker.

    I am having a nightmare. The track bike has Dymag 16.5" wheels on it. Bought a set of Brembo's that don't fit (might be for sale) went back to the original calipers to find that one of them was cracked. Next came a set of OEM calipers from a 2012 (not a direct replacement as there are slight dimension differences) and they are rubbing hence the new spacers. Oh also found out my wet wheels had wrapped disks. New set arrived and the idea was to put them on the drys and swap the drys to the wets. They are a different fit as the dry wheels are Magnesium and the wets are aluminium.

    For the love God I need a break. Oh track day on Thursday.

    Not sure if that would be sufficient for the front brake.

    I need spacers to increase the distance between the caliber and the disk.

    Thanks Neil, I've managed to source some 2008 callipers which fit into the wheel much easier when swapping from drys to wets.
