Brembo Gold Line 6 pot calipers can be fitted but you need to do a bit of machining to the mounts.

Walt is in a different arena that 99% of us are. Just the addition of stainless barke lines (like Earls or Russell) will impart an entirely different 'feel' to the stock brakes, which, are more than adequate for all but the most rigorus situations. Motorcycle brakes have come a long way from the SLS and DLS brakes of the sixties.

So long as your stock brakes (Nissin) can make the tire howl and have a lineal feel to them, they more than adequate. Anything past a howling tire is moot. You are riding on, at that time, a patch of liquid rubber and the best brakes will do nothing to slow your velocity and faster than the worse set of brakes.

More and more motorcycles are being equipped with a Wabco inspired anti-lock system. Personally, I feel ABS is fine on 4 or more wheeled vehicles but I never felt the need for it on 2 wheeled vehicles.
