The PIAGGIO SKR/Quartz models are supplied with an opitcal and technial unaspiring brake calliper. As this component isn't available from Piaggio anymore we have manufactured a brake caliper which not only sets the pulse of any professional customizer racing, but also improves the braking effect of the disc brakes.
The SIP Performance brake calliper is CNC-milled completely from aluminium. The bigger piston diameter, totalling 31.5 mm, guarantees a better braking performance. We have also given the brake calliper a GALFER brake pad that has a bigger pad width and therefore a non-tilting bearing surface. Special additional inner drill-holes make the bleeding easier. The brake callipers are anodised and come in the extreme racing colours of silver, black, titanium and red.
SIP-TIP: Use new brake fluid! A Stahlflex (braided steel) brake hose completes the picture and gives an even more accurate pressure point. If you lose the ball bearing for the bleeder valve you require the packet seal (part no. 56409000).
Tech-TiP Venting:
- Turn the brake calliper a couple of times during the venting
