Motorcycle Brake Calipers and Parts for Honda CBR600RR

One of the most important parts of your Honda motorcycles braking system is the brake caliper. The calipers and their supporting parts are the muscles that cause your motorcycle to slow down or stop. Proper care and maintenance of the motorcycle brake calipers and parts for Honda CBR600RR are essential for the riders safety.

There are several parts that are integral to stopping your motorcycle. The system starts with the master cylinder. Using the force from your hand or foot, the brake converts mechanical force into hydraulic pressure, telling the bike how fast to slow or stop.

The lever acts on a piston that puts pressure on the brake fluid, although both your force and the size of the piston determine the amount of pressure that gets put on the whole brake system. The brake lines then transmit the pressure to the calipers. The calipers then press the brake pads against the brake rotor, which causes friction and results in resistance. The brake disc then transfers the resistance to the wheel, causing the motorcycle to brake.

Brake fluid is integral to the operation of the motorcycle brake calipers; it transmits the force from the brake lever to the pads. Its also important that it has lubricity for master-cylinder and caliper piston seals and a high boiling point.

There are several types of materials appropriate for motorcycle brake calipers, but one of the most common choices is aluminum. Because its both lightweight and rust-proof, it offers the flexibility needed to build small but strong brake calipers for motorcycles.

There are three common placements for brake calipers:

• Front brake caliper: Front models were common with early disc brakes, and the naming for front calipers came from the fact that they were located on top of the disc in front of the fork leg.
• Rear brake caliper: Modern motorcycle systems usually mount the brake calipers behind the fork leg rather than in front of it in order to improve lower speed handling.
• Radial mounted: These are mounted parallel to the forward direction on the system and are usually used on performance-oriented motorcycles because the braking is more precise.

Brembo offers a unique solution thats compatible with Japanese and European hyper sports models. The monoblock simply means the caliper is made from a single billet of cast aluminum rather than separate parts. This creates increased stiffness during braking. In addition to the monoblock, Brembo offers two-piece billet components and a rear caliper line.

You need more than just a brake and caliper to install a new system. In addition to your tools, youll need the bolts and spacers. These are available in a fitting kit. However, be sure to check the brake caliper mounting bracket and spacer configuration specifics for your bike to ensure the kit includes all necessary parts.

One model thats highly recommended is the Brembo M4 108mm mount monoblock radial motorcycle caliper. This model provides a rigid brake caliper. It’s light and uses a pinless design for easy maintenance. The Brembo brand paired with the right fitting kit offers solid performance and a custom fit on your Honda.
