John Posted September 7, 2007 Report Posted September 7, 2007 I am trying to get a YFZ front end, and through all the reading and searching I have done, I have also found out that the YFZ brakes work on Banshees. Here is my questions: 1. Since I am moving to using YFZ spindles, do I need YFZ hubs? 2. Using YFZ hubs, would make it easier to mount calipers or no? 3. Are the YFZ brake rotors the same as Banshee rotors? 4. Are YFZ calipers and Raptor calipers the same? I keep finding Raptor ones also shown as YFZ ones. 5. What brake lines should I use with a COMPLETE YFZ front end? Sorry for so many questions, I just don't wanna buy the wrong parts, but I am not finding any of the specifics on what I am trying to do. Any help is greatly appreciated from you guys. Quote
letsgetthisdone Posted September 7, 2007 Report Posted September 7, 2007 if you go with yfz spindles you will need to run all yfz parts; hubs, rotors, calipers etc...and it will work. if you stick with banshee spindles, you put yfz caliper on the banshee spindles for better stopping power. Quote

Thanks for clearing that up... what about brake lines, which bike would I buy them for.... YFZ or Banshee. Also, are the Raptor and YFZ calipers the same? Thanks for the help. Quote

Bansh-eman Posted September 9, 2007 Report Posted September 9, 2007 break lines are break lines... just get the right length... yamaha uses one style on pretty much every bike they make. Quote
