Everyone using (or used) a R1 master for their hb...
Is it stiff with not really any movement or feel to it? To my understanding the 04-06 R1 is pretty much the best of the best when it comes to OEM. I know it's not gonna be as good as Brembo but I'm just wondering if this is how the master is, if I didn't bleed it good, or if this master is bad. I can lock it one finger but I gotta use a load of strength and energy to do so.

I had an '02 R1 and its front brake master was among the best of anything OEM I'd used..
not sure if it'd be any different in a handbrake setup though. Super light pull and very progressive.

I noticed a strange thing is that for the first pull it feels really good with a soft feel. But if I let it go and pull it again immediately it'll get super stiff. But if I let it go for a bit then pull it again its soft again...

For a dual caliper setup it would work great but for a single piston caliper it would be super stiff and require alot of pull

stupid chica, oem R1 masters are brembo
and i know a few people who through out the 16x18 and ordered the oem r1 master, its a good brake, bleed it right and you wont find a better one, bros have have both 16x18 and magura and say both overrated, just rock what ya got son!

flush your system with a clear hose and a bottle with a little bit of fluid in it and pump all the fluid out and put fresh in
if u pump fast then you wont get air in there
Re: Everyone using (or used) a R1 master for their hb...
i just put new lines in and that required from top down, but yes, your way reigns supreme, i attach resevoir to rear bleeder with fluid, works great Re: Everyone using (or used) a R1 master for their hb...
