Brembo – Brembo braking systems equip the Kawasaki ZX 10-R and ZZR 1400 Performance Sport, the Triumph Tiger 1200 and Thruxton, the new Suzuki GSXR-1000 and the new Harley Davidson Street 500/750.

To keep the 200 HP of Kawasaki's new ZX 10-R at bay, Brembo M50 monobloc calipers, Brembo 330 mm discs and Brembo radial master cylinder are used. Furthermore, Brembo and Kawasaki have jointly developed the new BRM11H brake pad compound for the ZX 10-R. The Brembo M50 4-piston calipers with a diameter of 30 millimeters, supplied to the best super sports bikes in the world, also appear in the original system of the Kawasaki ZZR 1400 Performance Sport. The braking system of this 300 km/h touring car is completed by the Brembo radial brake master cylinder and 310 mm discs.

The Suzuki GSXR-1000 remains faithful to the Brembo M4.32 radial caliper, a monobloc with 4 pistons with a diameter of 32 mm and a mounting distance of 108 mm. The novelty on the Hamamatsu super sports car is represented by the Brembo 320×5 front discs called Combined current Pin disc and T-drive technology, which replace the 310 mm discs of the 2015 model. After the Daytona, Triumph opts for Brembo braking systems also for the Tiger 1200 and the Thruxton: the English touring adventure uses the aforementioned Brembo M4.32 caliper and combines it with a pair of 305×4,5 mm Brembo floating discs. The same discs are also used on the modern classic Thuxton sports car, which instead uses the Brembo M4.34 monobloc caliper with 4 pistons of 34 millimeters in diameter.

10 years after the start of the collaboration with Harley Davidson, Brembo has prepared a new range of products for the small US custom (the saddle is only 710 mm high and the dry weight is 223 kg), the Harley-Davidson Street 500-750. Compared to the model launched on the market last year, the 500 version Street 750/2016 boasts a series of technical solutions that guarantee excellent results in terms of immediate response and brake modulation in all conditions of use. The aesthetic and chromatic features of the six new components are in line with the distinctive stylistic features of the legendary US customs. All calipers are painted black and integrate perfectly with the 4 colors of the Street 750: Black Denim, Vivid Black, Superior Blue and Fire Red.
