Re: rc51 triples???

there is a diffrence from the 919 SP1 & the 919 SP2.... the stem on the
SP2 is fatter and so is the upper Bearing.. (you would have to find
a local Bearing shop and measure the inner frame hole and the Stem to
get a new bearing, If you got the SP2)

maybe this link will also help ya

Re: rc51 triples???

neither rc51 triples will work.. the bottom bearing is to big for the f4i frame. ive done this swap twice now and everything bolts right up except the triples. u gotta get some 929/954's or u can fight tooth and nail trying to mod the rc51 triple..

oh yeah the rc51 top triple works with the 954 lower..bolts right on..so only the bottom is needed

Re: rc51 triples???

You can use a couple different top clamps, but on the lower triple you need the 929 or 954.

929/954 rotors are much larger than F4i.

Calipers are the same.
