I've had both Raask and Paolo Tarrozi's on a few of my bikes. I hated the design of the Raask's. They were on a Bandit 600 but the design mechanics were from the 60/70's. They used a linkage setup to actuate the rear brake and there was way too much slope in the design.

I have Tarrozi's for my Kz900 and my 1000. They use a linkage system for the rear brakes as well, but it's a much tighter system and actually works.
