Re: Anyone use a clutch master for a handbrake?
so binder if the piston on the 1krr clutch is 12.5 would that be sufficeint for me to run it as a hand brake. The only reason i ask is because i have a clutch master fro ma 1krr and i was gonna us it as my hb and run the 1krr front radial as my front brake master.....
what would be the feel of the clutch vs. the brake master??? squishy? firm? what?

if the larger bore masters (19 & 20)are more on/off and the 16 seems to be a nice medium w/ lots of feel and good power....
simple hydrolics: smaller piston produces more pressure w/ less force but needs more travel to accomplish the same volume of work as a larger piston, which needs more force but less lever travel.

I also went from a 06 gsxr1k to a 1000rr clutch master and i can lock it up 1 finger with the clutch master.
P.S. in case anyone was having a problem with the res on the clutch masters, you can remove it and replace it with the teardrop adapter off of MOST rear masters and use a remote resevoir.
