HHD 4 piston (13mm vs. 16mm)
 

I am very curious about who is running what bore size with their 4 piston caliper.

Rule of thumb 13mm w/single piston. 16mm w/4piston. Ive heard of a few guys running 13mm w/4piston setups.

What works for you, and why?

Good question. I hope this thread gets a lot of replys.

The only sweating came from pop-starting that pile.

CHAD9 is running a 13mm Magura with 4-piston and said its the shit. I think Twite might be as well

I just got off the phone with someone who told me this.

How about you Sketchy, what is your setup?

13mm 190 magura w/ fti adaptor. I will be doing a dual caliper setup soon though cause i hate the transition between foot and hand brake with the adapter

+1000000000000 I hate it I hate it I hate it. I am doing some nice roll back 180 stoppies now and I always stop the back tire in stoppies with my foot brake and after doing the roll back stoppie I hop to seat stander to clutch it up and SQUISH of the handbrake till I get a good pump in!!!
the whole team is going to HO-HEY REAL REAL SOOON

thats what i have on my f4i an i totally agree.. only change i would make is single piston hohey jus so i dont have the 1 pump laG when switchn from foot to handbraKE. but on the 636 an gixxers i would never ride with a adapter on my own bike... i love the 4 piston on the 636.... the bike is so much faster an i love all the brake i can get to stall an whatnot when whipn it around.... HOHEY for life!!!!!:YEAH

yes sir! ive rocked and friends have rocked every master of there almost and we have narrowed it down to the 03-04 636 front master being the next best thing to brembos. trust me ive tried tons and this one works the best:2cents

thats WITH a 4 piston rear caliper though right??


I tried a 636 master, wasn't impressed at all.. Felt like any other non radial to me :shruggs



I'm a brake force whore though.. I love braking power..

Re: HHD 4 piston (13mm vs. 16mm)
 

oh yeah and im rocking the asv shorty levers and it still locks the shit up easy as hell.

thats with the 4 piston or even with the stock one it works good. the new set up is way better tho. i do think i am gonna get a brembo tho, even tho everyone tells me that mine is the shit the way it is. if your a lot of people make the mistake of not properly bleading there breaks too so that messes a lot up



and stop killing your handbrake! :LOL

haha

I just hate when I gas it too hard, or dump the clutch too hard, and my hand brake WONT bring me down, when my foot brake would have :banghead


I'm hoping a dual caliper with my 1000rr master will give me enough power to easily lock my wheel with 1 finger
