yes this has been posted many times lol I was actually the one posting it sometime back. The answers i got/found were using a brembo 16x18 master and then you can either go with a full throttle setup or get a ho hey dual caliper adapter and run a 2nd rear caliper just for your hand brake....there are many options and choices just depend on what your lookin for and how much you have to spend

yes....Many of us....I have a gp tach adaptor with the 1000rr and it's very strong.....never a problem

The strongest i have ever seen is a brembo 15/17 clutch radial master with a hohay duel caliper...and the 2nd HB caliper is a front brake 4 piston caliper....U can lock the back tire up sooo easy you can stall the bike at 40mph....too strong for me....but i my experience this is the sickest set up...

you have to get an adapter and a long brake line, otherwise its useless

Well, it all depends on your contacts ......I found a 1000rr front master from a friend for 50, found a 52" braided line on ebay for like 45 and got my gp tach from HAI.

The I would contact hohay and see if they can make one with the mounting holes for a 4 piston caliper and order the line from them it;s like 70+ inches and just try to find any radial master and it will be so strong u will be scared.
