Strange caliper question!? was created by polkat
This may seem like an odd question, but do any small Japanese cars use the same caliper and caliper pad design as the KZ750H's? Or were those calipers designed directly for that bike? Thanks!

I would hazard a guess, given my experience with mid 70's Hondas that the motorcycle calipers are motorcycle specific. But I could be wrong.

No car calipers match a bikes as your talking about stopping 3000lbs vs 500lbs. If I assume your needing a caliper on a budget you don't have much choice but to find a good used one.
