I finally made contact with the guy who made the brackets for EBC. His name is Ted Devol, of Devol Engineering. He confirmed that they still have the files to produce the brackets. In order to make a production run they need at least 10 orders. Cost will be around $110 each. The discs are also a triumph fitment and are listed as well as the f2 kit. I am making a post on the main page for people to see if there is enough interest in pooling an order.

 

I'll buy a set of those brackets.

 

hmmm, that's double what I paid for mine from EBC, but you gotta do what you gotta do, I guess... anyway, I'd like to have a set on hand for when I eventually build another F2 race bike, but since I don't know when that will happen, I don't think I could justify getting a set right now, at that cost.

I'm glad you scoped out this thing, though... it's nice to have an option, and I'm sure there are a lot of guys that will get on board for this!

 

When you say $110 each, do you mean "each persons cost" or for each bracket?

 

Great work, researching this!
If the price is for 2 brackets, I'm interested.


On a similar note, I believe I may have found another way.
I am babysitting my friend's 2006 Kawasaki Concours this holiday season, while he's out of town, and got to looking at his front brake set-up.
The Concours uses twin 300mm rotors with brackets that appear to have been made to fit a wide range of machines (not surprising, since the Concours--as great a tourer as it is, was always considered a parts-bin bike). Anyway, the bracket allows for the exact same bolt pattern as F2 calipers, but the downside is that the threads are for larger 10mm threads, so the fork lower caliper mounts would have to be drilled to accommodate the bigger thread.
Now, because of the offset pitch of the Kaw set-up, it appears that a 310mm rotor will work with what I propose, but it might require twin 320mm rotors. That's also not a problem, because the Thruxton uses the 320mm rotor, and the bolt pattern is identical to the Bonneville and the CBR F2.
This is a non-scientific assessment at this point, but I "think" it will work with minimal issues, that most of us who are handy could easily work around.
In order to know for certain, I'll have to purchase an EBay caliper bracket, and fiddle with it and post up results.


Ultimately though, I think springing for the $110.00 brackets is likely less headache inducing, and a guaranteed fit, out of the box.

 

The price is for the set.

 

That's not a bad deal, then.
I'm interested in a pair.

 

So far it looks like 3 and 1/2 people are interested in buying a set of brackets. We will need a bunch more to get that price.

 

Well, I'm definitely interested.


Has anyone expressed interest on the general forum?

 

I wish I could jump on board, but I need my current money going toward the new race bike, and I don't know when I'll ever be building another F2 that will need the improved braking provided by these rotors.

I will definitely let you guys know, if anything changes, and I go for a set.
