Blue Dot adaptors for Anti-Dive forks

A few members have looked for these adaptors to fit the Blue/Gold/Silver dot calipers to their Anti-dive forks. Once in awhile a set will turn up on eBay.

I am in the process of restoring/upgrading my Vmax and I found a company that sells the adaptors for the '85-'92 Vmax. These adaptors WILL work on FJ Anti-Dive forks.

These adaptors may also allow you to install a 17" front wheel with the larger 298mm rotors. This I can not confirm.

Thanks Fred. This question seems to come up from time to time. A brake upgrade and tire/wheel upgrade without swapping out fork lowers.

Would you mind if I copied and pasted your information over to the Modification Files section?

Thanks again

Cheers

Yep, the adaptors for the  original VMax fit. All depends. Do you want to swap front forks for Fj12s?
Or just leave it as it is. Buy adaptors. Perfect fit. Then but blue spots.
If you are short of money like me. Take a couple of years. It doesn't feel so bad. T.
