    Well since they are probably stamped made in Japan.. Yes..
    But beyond that Suzuki would demand a level of testing and QA/QC that eBay does not. I'm not saying a huge mega million $$ company can't trust products from China. They have the legal commandos and engineers to to ensure quality. I'm saying you and I can't trust the quality.

        Its funny you guys all think our bikes are Japaneese made lol
        You do know that like all other MFGs they source out their parts and labour to the cheaper suppliers for cost saving. you would be shocked to know how much iof this bike is made in korea, china and japan

        As a dealer of Japanese and Chinese bikes, I see the best and worst of both worlds.

        Some companies back their products up, others dont. that should tell you right there if you can trust the quaility. I presonally have had a lot of experiance with the china made brake set ups and will back them up. Products from China are not what they were 10 years ago

          They maybe making these brembo partss and what not in china, but they are made to the manufactures specs. These are cheap knock offs, made to god knows what specs. So yeah, Brembo moves there factory over to china to save a few bucks, cool, cuz they have a reputation to keep there product should stay up to par with what it has been in the past. Not these no name cheap things that may fall apart on you the first time you have to do hard breaking or something.

            If the 'best stuff' will come from China, the world will have to take several steps down in quality.

                Brakes are no place to cut corners. If you want to save a buck then buy the cheap plastics, or a seat. Those won't get you killed if they crack or are defective.
