Another handbrake ?

Making my own dual caliper setup.

Got another rear caliper and bracket that I am going to weld. 42" brake line and banjos.

Should I still use a BREMBO 16x18 or can I use a Ducati 999 clutch master(15x18)? I was thinking aobut this one, cause the reservoir is mounted to it and it's a radial master.

Re: Another handbrake ?

only problem with that is Clearence issues pal, thats why people use remote resi master cylinders. u are going to have to have that huge bulky thing pointing straight down at the ground and u only want it at about a 45* angle. and u will have to have your clutch aiming up and its going to give u some serious arm pump.

I was thinking about putting the handbrake on top and the Moose clutch lever on the bottom.

Sounds like your spending the time and money to do things right.Might wanna just invest in a master w/remote.You might not like the handbrake on top and then your stuck with it.With remote you can change it around to your liking.

just go out to your bike right now and look which way your levers are pointed for your front brakes and your clutch... you will have serious ajustabilities with that pos clutch master. it will maybe maybe have the same angle as your clutch right now if u put your clutch facing down.
