Sneaky google says 5/8 is std for RSV- not sure if someone has one and can confirm.

Get the right m/c though mate, it would be folly not to do this upgrade correctly

Would that ducati one suffice then?

just for comparison, i use standard nc35 calipers and an R6 Nissin master cylinder. not great for the road, but great for the track - it stops you like an iron bar through the front wheel :shock:

I asked the seller yesterday about what he had fitted with these brakes -

he said the nc30 m/c was adequate used to dive under braking a bit, he suggested upping the preload. As they work fine with the current m/c I may well wait until a cheap rsv m/c comes up. 82 quid is the cheapest I can find at the moment.

Any more advice is always welcome and appreciated.
