Matching master cylinders
07/27/16 2:16 PM

Unfortunately on the new special edition the components are mixed, we have a brembo front brake setup, and nissin everything else. On my bike the bolts are different on the master cylinders, the levers are a different style and color, and the only things that really match on the controls are the reservoirs.
At some point I'd like to at the very least have matching levers, really wouldn't think that would be too much to ask!
Anyway it looks like this will not be a cheap or easy change.. :\
On the other hand I found these master cylinders on Ebay.
Heck of a price, does anyone think there is a chance that these are worth more attention?

Very nice but I'd be a little cautious. Why so cheap? I'd expect that from an Asian copy. ...and I have seen Brembo logo on copies. Then again, it's just the clutch. If it works who cares if it's a copy? Been pretty satisfied with my Asian parts. ..just don't try to return them.

It looks pretty, but still wouldn't match the brakes. I'm sure its a copy. Just wish the factory would have at least used similar levers..

Get Pazzos. They make brembo levers. I'm not sold on their levers tough. Had a big problem with my Pazzo clutch lever. If you get them, take out bushing, clean and lube a few x/year at least. High maintenance regimen might make them work fine. My bushing seemed to get dirty and freeze up. clutch started slipping. Clutch lever seemed to click since new so IDK if it was lack of maintenance or just poor deign or the wrong lever or what. Well Brembo may have a whole diff push rod set up than the 14's stock clutch.

I have pazzos on one of my bikes. I really like the CRG levers a lot more. Course they don't have any for our machine. Maybe someone will come out with something matching that I'd like in the next year or so..
