Title: "Proper" bore sizes for Brembo radial master clutch and brake (street use)
Post by: hillbillypolack on June 07, 2008, 08:29:11 AM
I have a Brembo radial master clutch on my M900, and will be looking to do something similar to that on the S2R.  A broken left wrist in 1997 kind of necessitates doing that with the heroic Ducati clutch pull.

(Don't get me wrong, I love the dry clutch, it just needs a little modding).

My question is, what is the "proper" bore and stroke for the clutch master in a street application?  I see a few options, so I thought I'd ask the professionals. 

Also, for street use, what's a good bore/stroke for the radial master brake?  I like modulation, not an "on / off" brake feel.  And EBC greens felt pretty good on the M900, since they tend to heat up quickly.

Thanks for any advice or opinions.

Brembo has a 16mm clutch master and a 19mm brakemaster
I have a 14mm Spiegler clutchmaster on my bike and that one works lighter than the brembo did (which i had before)

I use both the m/c's listed above:

Brembo 19x18 forged radial brake m/c

and

Brembo 16x18 billet radial clutch m/c

They work fantastic. You will need to get creative with reservoir mouting, as they do not provide a place for it as they come. Also, no mirror mounts.
