I'm thinking of getting them as I think the brakes on VFR are shit really, 200 quid is quite a bit for brakes though....or is it a decent price for 6 pots?

Don't know but it would cost almost that to service yours at a garage.

Thats the current bid, bear in mind.

They are actually around £350 per pair new. They are made in an industrial estate in Reading. Keep meaning to pop along and have a gander!

The pretech stuff is good kit, certainly well made. The guys at the workshop are pretty helpful, looked into having a set of six pots made up for the GPz before I decided to scrap the front end.

Can you not upgrade to Fireblade 4-pot spec calipers on the VFR? Imagine it can be done fairly easily???
