It has nothing to do with the calliper and there are plenty of them around fitted to fz's

I supose I shouldnt take this thread off track. And you are right there seems loads that have done it. We dont know if this is what caused kebabs because he has not come back to his post.
But here is kebabs picture before it broke, compared to the OEM it is a lot lower and makes for a greater angle on the arm which inturn puts extra stress on the swingarm mount point. (to me anyway)
Edit--- or has he mounted the hanger differently

The calliper itself wouldn't seen to be the issue, based on wide spread use, but rather the arm used or the method used to secure the arm (OEM or whatever) to the swingarm mount (hopefully OEM)

Looks like the XJR1300 torque arm is the same as the Thundercat item, can anyone confirm?
XJR ones seem to go for quite a bit less.
