Rear master cylinder and GSXR brakes
08 Mar 2012 13:43 - 08 Mar 2012 13:44
In the process of gathering parts for my 05 GSXR 1000 swingarm swap, and have come to the rear brakes. Can I reuse the KZ master cylinder/tank to drive the GSXR caliper or should I be looking for a rear MC too?

personally i like to keep the master cylinder matched up with the caliper.
that takes the guess work out of "if" it will work or not.

i would use any modern master. the linkage is easier to deal with if u r changing to rear sets. if u are maintaining the stock kz footpegs and brake pedal, the stock master may be easier. i would not wory about the performance , so much as the ease of setup.
