My setup:




But now I have changed to steel braided lines all the way and I use the 4 piston caliper for the footbrake. Works good with a 1000rr master (the Brembo 16x18 was to weak for this setup)

 

I have two stock f4i calipers running inline, through a full throttle billet adapter. 13mm magura. It is super strong, crazy sensitive. Maybe too much so. The lever feels soft and squishy, and has a ton of feel to it.

Awesome setup in my opinion. Takes some getting used to tho. And the foot brake becomes the same, as you now have two rear calipers off of it. Tons of feel.

 

the only thing i dont like about the through the mater set ups is they cant be used at the same time. i know some one will say it but everyone f's up once in a while and mistakenly will hit both at once which = no brake. i have and im sure just about everyone else on here has too. other than that it sounds gangster.

 

can you please stop giving advice on **** you dont know about. plenty of people have 2 calipers linked together.

 

IMO that is going against the whole point of 2 calipers

you once again remove the ability to use your hand brake and foot brake and be able to seamlessly transfer between the two

 

Just get a 4 piston.. Tanus has the two rears hooked together and its not as strong as my 4 piston from FTI

 

I think this could be dope, but you eliminate half the reason why i run a dual caliper..if you break something or get air in one line u can transfer to the other brake and keep goign.

 

hey kevin put some pics up of the build.

 

Has anyone actually found a reason to use both brakes at the same time?

 

I will, Im gonna go ahead and hook it up and see what its all about, its not gonna cost me anythign but some time. If it doesnt work out Im gonna get that new full throttle dual quad joint

probabley be a few day before I get some pics up, im pretty lazy now a days, lol

 

When transferring between the two

When I go from a sit down to a SS, I have to FULLY let off the foot brake before using the hand brake, and when I go back, I gotta FULLY let off the hand brake before getting on the foot brake.

Has anyone found a reason for actually needing 2 calipers to the hand brake? Other then the bikes that DONT have a 4 piston caliper option?

 

hey T-dub, how strong is Tanuses, do you think it would pull him off the bar with a short tail whacked off at the subframe strong?

 

edit: doh read that wrong

 

Is that a big deal to you though? Ive ran a single caliper for ever and I never found that to be an issue. Even transferring during coasters is fine, you only need to use one at a time, just transfer between taps (of the brake). Ive seen a lot of people on here who share your opinion on it.

 

as long as you pull the clutch in, a 900rr master and oily pads will still bring you off the bar

 

lol, very true

 

It honestly does **** with me

it's not that big of a deal, but considering I'm sure a 4 piston alone on my hand brake will be more power then I'll ever need, I see no reason to link the 2

 

im gonna say this, its rider preference what i like and what im comfortable with might not be for you. try what you have its all about trial and error.

for me hohey 4 piston setup with a 1000rr master flipped is butter and you might want to look into bill at full throttle hes come out with something new as well.


good luck bro
