I decided against the ebay HB kit since a few of you told me it was a waste of money and you cant mount it under the clutch. I found a 02 GSXR 1000 front brake master cylinder that i was thinking of getting and then ordering the brake lines and banjo bolts from HAI. Is that the way to go? It is a radial master. Like i said im new to the whole HB. Last time i posted some of you told me to get a master cylinder off ebay. So am i going the right direction with the 1000 radial master?

 

i had a 06 gsxr 1000,now i im using the 05 r1....but i just bought a 16/18 brembo....so when that gets here i see what all the hype is about

 

All depends what you wanna spend. If you have the $ the Brembo is sick. But you can get a nice radial for a hundred bucks.

I have an 04-06 R1 (made by brembo) for front brake and the 16x18 on the HB. Pricey but they have a nice feel and good power.

 

05 r1 master, jewed it for $50 bucks.

 

1985 gsxr 750 clutch master cylinder.

 

ive ran a 06 R6 05 R1 and a 954 master (dont know what year), but my favorite by far is the 954 master (dont know if it was a radial, but it had a sweet feel to it).

929/954 is not Radial, but it does work pretty well.

 

Haha yeah that sounds like a winner, im sure it will feel like oil on the rotors.........

 

actually those work pretty well and they accept DOT3 fluid.

Ran an 06 Gixxer 1000 radial for the past year, pretty good if you keep it bled perfect all the time. I rode a bike with an R1 radial and seems a little better. Radials seem to run about $100 on ebay like what was said above. The newer the better of course since there will be less wear and tear on them.

Just got a 16x18 Magura and is it worth the few hundred more for this. YEP! It's more consistant, on point, and powerful, giving you more confidence, which pushes progression. I've rode w/ a brembo 16x18 too. There just as powerful as the magura, just more spungy and not as precise, and the lever has a sharp angle which I don't like.

 

Does everyone doing slow stuff use hand brakes these days?

 

everyone seems to love the brembo 16x18. Havent heard of 1 person not liking it yet. When I pickup a F4i gonna get the 16x18, braided line, & the hohey dual caliper bracket.

Thinking about geting a full throttle handbrake kit & the 16x18 for my R1.

 

05 636 master.

 

i have a 19x18... not using it though think i might put it on my new katana....

 

For the most part. You are just going to limit yourself if you dont get one.

Brembo 16 x 18, spend the money.

 

i just bought this new handbrake.... http://www.extremesports.ltd.uk/bmx/product60-776.htm once you put it on it works so good no brake fade or anything...

 

****** SICK!!!!

 

I didn't click on the link when I first saw it cause I already knew what I want but when I saw the quote saying "******* SICK" I clicked on it and laughed. Definatly no brake fade with that.

 

what about the 06 600 gsxr its about the same as the 1000 isnt it i used it and felt strong . is there much of a difference
