I'll sell it now. I have to keep the 1000rr front master though. Its the old full throttle master like yours with the steel braded brake line thats plenty long enough for dirt bars or clip ons.
I'll get some pics of it on my 07 zx6. I don't know what bike its for, when I bought it I was told it would fir an 04 636 but it didn't. I had to rig it up to make it fit on my 636 and my zx6, but it works.

If he can measure the distance between the holes on the right rear set that allows the rear master to bolt up, I can let you know if it'll bolt up right or not. Like I said, it didn't fit my 04 636 so I drilled holes in my rear set and made it work.

By the way, shipping to CT sucks ***. I ended up paying like 67 bucks to ship that sub frame.

Re: what handbrake is evryone running?

I've heard of people running clutch masters before. If its all you got you might as well try it.

Re: what handbrake is evryone running?

**** paying for a handbrake. i rigged my own for free.

here's what i did:

I got 2 zip ties and daisy chained them together on the bottom of my foot brake, then to the top of my rear master. I ran some bailing wire from the zip tie to the handlebars then shortened my own clutch cable and soldered it to the bailing wire. When I pull on the clutch cable with my clutch lever it actuates the bailing wire and pulls downward on my rear brake.

Guaranteed 1 finger lock stopping power and most people have all the **** to do it right in their garage, paying for something as trivial as a handbrake is garbage. :YEAH
