Is the Shimano 600 brakes, 6207 (6208) series available only as long reach calipers or is there short reach calipers also in the same series?

I know they made short reach as I have 600 Brakes also. Just have to keep looking on EBAY. I saw them there a month or so ago. That's all I can say or contact a LBS that has been in business a long time and see if they can get them.

And u are sure it is the 6200-series u have? Because the 6400 is available in short reach.
