hand brake set up ?'s - J Free - 11-17-2009

bike is F4i

If I am running a Single caliper adapter set up and have the regular single piston rear caliper (not the 4 piston rear caliper setup with bracket), will the stock 04-05 CBR1000RR front brake radial master cylinder flipped work well or is that set up only favored for a dual caliper set up. I can get my hands on one fairly cheap but I cant find anywhere what the piston diameter is on the 04/05 CBR1000RR front brake master cylinder.

Thanks

It will work fine but ideally the Magura 13mm or Brembo 16x18 is butter

I ran the 1000RR master, but I had a dual caliper setup... it worked really well, but make sure you bleed it!!! Don't just power bleed it, I mean do all the little tricks to get every last bubble out!

I always fill the reservoir and let gravity do its thing. I always unhook the brakeline at the rear caliper until it starts dripping out, then i bolt the brakeline to the caliper. I loosen the bleeder until it starts coming out of there. Then i bleed the system from the caliper working my way up to the master
