looks liek that'll work, 45 degree outlet so your fluid is always flowing down, and looks to be smaller

i just installed an 05 636 radial master on my bike and i dunno about it, haven't ridden with it yet but it feels much stiffer than my 900rr

Re: hand brake ?

I need 2 of them, one for my f4i, and one for my crf450. I got the 1000rr master on the 450 and it is like a rock, but doesn't lock up the wheel , I think it is cuz the piston is to large becuase it is made for dual caliper with dual pistons. Smaller piston should give me a longer throw with better feel, but more force to lock up the rear according to some hydraulics books I scanned through. I hope so, cuz those brembos are coin $$$.

Re: hand brake ?

i dunno, i got my 05 636 radial to bleed up ****ing perfect, and on the softest setting it locks up with one finger effortlessly, almost too powerful.


all though i'm running the lever on the end of the clip on so the very tip is where i'm pulling on, but still 1000rr should work as well..

and i didn't pay anything for my radial :YEAH
