Re: Master Cylinder
Yes I do have a Brembo one - its a radial one from an RSVR factory - fits well and is more than cabable of stopping the VFR.
I made a new bracket to mount the reservoir as it di have a few issues clearing the bodywork near the screen. Hop this helps?

Re: Master Cylinder
Ah ok, yeah it does help. My fireblade one has clearance issues with the lever hitting the clocks
. Was your RSVR one expensive?

Re: Master Cylinder
The RSVR one on my bike doesn't have any of the standard clocks to hit as I've put some smaller Translogic ones on instead
I think the master cylinder cost me about £70 with braided lines and lever- not sure if this is a bargain or not?!!!
I just got it from a breaker who I got a load of parts from at the same time
