i bought a real handbrake from the parts classified on here and just ran a brakeline down to the rear master w a double banjo bolt

WHAT? Did that work? As far as I know with most master cylinders, that can't work. If you run a double banjo and the foot master, the upper master will just pressurize the footmaster's resi, unless the foot master is in use, and therefore closed to the resi.

In order to run two master's with a single caliper, you have to connect the handbrake master the the foot master's resi port. There are adapters to do this, or you could maybe drill out the nipple and tap it for a banjo bolt.

my roomate just bought a cheapo rear brake setup from pccmotor.com ,it came w a master cylinder and caliper ,but the thing that was cool about it is it had the honda style rear master so the honda gp tech adapter i have fits it perfect .plus the brake setup was only 50 bucks for xr/crf50

thats the break setup.it has a teardrop shaped resivior input,the same as a stock honda motorcycle.there are many ways to tap into the master cylinder,the GP TECH honda handbrake adapter has the same shape design

the link above is to show the junction valve only

jimG

but you will need a 12mm disc rear rim,the site the brake setup came from has the rim too if u go back to the main menu

jimG

the master cylinder has a valve that attaches a fluid rez. you replace the stock valve with a gp tech stunt adapter.then run a line up to a handmaster cylinder

jimG

okay guys heres a few pics the top pic is the rear brake setup installd on my boys 110 pit bike..notice the teardrop shaped inlet valve for the fluid rezivior.... well the picture u see is the setup i mentioned.its from pccmotor.com its a master cylinder and a caliper pre primed $50 shipped

now..this is a picture of the honda master cylinder on my f4i with the same design teardrop shape inlet..in the bottom pic look at the GP TECH handbrake adapter.it goes on the master cylinder and allows u to run a line off it up to your hand master on your bars,the adapter is like $60 and then youll need the ss brakeline and a handmaster cylinder.(one w a resivior on a hose so u can put the bottle out of the way

hopefully this helps

anyone trying it?

is that set up going to work 100%? if so i am building a mid size stunt moto right now with a 140cc and i am going to use that set up! what cluth lever are you using and what rear hand break master you using?
thanks

jimG

i use a moose ezpull clutch and i used a nissin radial master that i had layin around.every stunt bike ive made used the gptech adapter,i think it has somekinda certain shaped inlet so theres no back pressure ,works great for me

jimG

im building a stunt moto too ill be orderin a decent size motor and a rear shock as soon as i cash my tax return.gonna do this setup on that too,right now im just runnin a brakeline from the master to the caliper,also works mint
