Hi, would it be the 748/916/996 type calipers that can be made to fit?
I take it i would need, Calipers, brackets, m/s cylinder, resevoir & maybe different lines?
i
would be greatful if some one could tell me what parts are actually needed all together to make the conversion?
& how well do these calipers work on the standard nc30 dics?
Thanks all!

hello not sure which of the brembos you'd need as i didnt go that way but i do remember them being 65mm fixing points.
yes, you need different brake lines, ideally a bigger m/c or something to suit - there are loads of options & you'll need some caliper fitting brackets for the fork legs.
Rick Oliver sells the brackets you will need.

Hi there, yes, 65mm mounting type Brembo calipers are the ones you will need, and of course some alloy brackets (ask Rick Oliver).
Used to have the 2-pad type 65mm calipers fitted on ex-NC30, these came from a Ducati 916 model, you will need some longer braided lines and as for mastercylinder.
I found the Brembo adjustable m/c type PSC16 goes perfect.
The ones pictures in that fleabay item...are the better (read: more expensive ones) as these are the 4-pad type (4 small brake pads used per caliper!).

thanks for replys guys
So this is a worth while mod in terms of braking power gains?

Hi Matt,
I can supply you with a good set of 65mm Brembo goldline calipers with good pads (Ducati 996) for £90 delivered if its any use to you.
Edit: coming to think about it I have matching Brembo 996 mastercylinders available too, in the same parcel (no additional postage cost) £70 for just a mastercylinder (no res. pot, lever etc, or £90 for a complete unit.
Failing that I have a complete Ducati 996 front end and fitting kit for the nc30 - but that would be a substantial amount of money (Galfer braking wave discs, gold nitrate Tin forks, wheel, braided lines mastercylinder, yokes, calipers, c/f front guard, hinged clip ons, etc).
Cheers Paul.

Riley, i am interested in the calipers, master cylinder and resevoir. Any chance of keeping them for me untill the end of the month?
How much would you be looking for for the complete front end, probably too much for me

but just curious.
Cheers
