Anyhow, Z1E's splitter is less expensive (but currently shown as temporarily out of stock)

Z1E's splitter

If not already done, might also consider using a double banjo bolt with a separate line to each caliper from the master cylinder (no splitter required) as an alternative application. (Also requires brake line modifications).

Z1E's Double Banjo Bolt

And believe Z1E also carries a selection of different length brake lines with various angle end fittings [see under "New Items"].

Good Luck! :)

I already have the dual disk set-up,Patton.
"C-C"...center to center on the 2 mounting bolts.
I AM using the longer banjo bolt,but I just wanted to make it look a bit cleaner,as far as the 2 brake-lines go...make them look even..B)
It's not a big deal,just thought if someone had a spare layin around.
I'm going to be replacing the line from the MC,and thought it would be nice to get the proper splitter on,while I have it all apart.
Thanks for the links,btw...appreciate that,budB)

Well I see your trouble is already settled and thats great! I picked mine off of ebay for about $15, the $130 is a bit nuts. I was going to suggest just using a double banjo bolt and you'd be set. If the splitter falls through, the double banjo and a master cylinder off of a Honda CB (has a brake switch in the lever) would do the trick. True its not original, but only your discerning KZ rider buddies would know for sure!

Wholly CRAP,Sam!
Now how the heck did you KNOW,that I was using a *onda CB master cylinder(96 CB650)?:ohmy: (with the brakelight switch built in).Who CARES that it's not a Kawi part...it's WAY better.
Seriously though...that IS...EXACTLY what I'm using!:ohmy:
And I AM using a bouble banjo-bolt down at the factory (single-disk) splitter,but like I said,I'm going to be replacing the line with a steel-braided line,and figured I would tidy it all up while I was at it.
It works great,and I LOVE the switch,because with the factory pressure-switch,I couldn't activate the brakelight unless I really pulled hard on the brake lever.
AND...the brake lever is adjustable!B)
So I by-passed the factory pressure switch,and wired it directly to the micro switch at the lever.

I've been running it like this now,for about 3 years,and it's been working perfectly!B)

(too funny)
