Just scored a rear brake hanger off (apparently) a 1988 GSXR1100J. ebay # 280841813110 The J also had the six spoke wheels so should fit, but it ain't the same as the one on the last conversion I did- you can see that they are both 'deep vee' mounts but the one I've just bought has holes in it, the other is solid. Have the breakers got it wrong?

Can't- it's and eBay pic and I can't seem to copy it.  Copy and paste the number into eBay and it should show it.
 
One day you will be as sneaky as me:

Just looking at the pic of my old bike- those mufflers really did sit at a jaunty angle for the late seventies, didn't they?
 
Oh alright, since you asked.
I right clicked on the original image and selected 'properties' - nothing showing.
So I pressed 'enlarge' below that image did the same as above and behold it is now a Jpg.
 
Reggie,

Several variants of hangers around.

750s had 220mm discs, these hangers usually have the holes.  1100s had 240mm discs, solid hangers.  Looks like a 220mm disc on your old triple but the hanger seems to be for a 240mm disc...

Later (GSXR600/750/1000 K5,6) hangers for 220mm discs look very similar but have different caliper mounting spacings.  K7 models got the solid mounted brackets, totally different.

Pretty sure the swept area was OK on the old bike- I would have noticed if the pads had been off the edge of the disc.  Anyway, I have to buy a rear disc so I'll just buy the appropriate size.
 
Just between you and me  ;), Shhh......... I'm thinking you might want to change your rego label to something more near 2012, while playing on that side of the bike.
 
Ahh, well that's an old pic, see.  That bike got spirited off, never to be heard of again a couple of years ago.  I went over to the dark (pink?) side and bought an RGS.  :D

Well I loved my 180, but the RGS is a better bike.  Doesn't make me want me to kiss any blokes though, not even one as handsome as Steve.
