Good Luck! :)

I'm going to use a GSXR master cylinder and remote resevoir for my single front disk brake on my 650. Not sure if it will be as bad ass as I hope so I'm keeping the original as well. I don't see why it would be a problem other than maybe making the front brakes a little more touchy.

I would like to have one of those all in one systems...Like I hit the front brakes and it operated both...that would be cool!

Okay, that was a bit blunt. But seriously there is a reason they are seperate.

Exactly. The front brake might to most of the braking in one respect but I use my rear break much more often. Nobody hits the front break to slow down a few MPH.

Do you know that most Goldwings have an integrated system where the rear brake controls the rear disk and the left front disk and the front brake lever controls the right front rotor.

Goldwings also double as campers.
