Brembo Hidden Rear Master Cylinder

[SEXT9]

Some time ago I did the Brembo hidden rear caliper mod on my bike. I like that it looks cool and all. But on either one of my bikes it didn't stop the rear wheel as well as I would have liked. So I started some searching and found this old thread. I thought it might just be the ticket for me.

So I started doing some research on master cylinders and found I needed a Brembo PS13 master cylinder. Upon researching where to find one, I found KTM has been using them on many of their bikes for years. I also found KTM used some with integrated master cylinders. At some point I gave thought to the idea. Hmmm ...a hidden Brembo caliper and a hidden Brembo master cylinder might look trick and function well. I like they are both the same name brand. Given the write up in that thread, I decided to give it a try.

Just bought the rear master, now just wait for it to come in and get it coated black!

This is going to look mediocre!

Yeah, but keep us informed, because I like your idea of mediocre.

Haha will do, I need to disassemble get it coated and then get a rebuild kit in it. After all that it will still probably be mediocre like the shine on Neil's polished header.

Oh9bolt: Is that the same bore size as the OE? I know going to a smaller bore will help the wooden rear Buell brake syndrome and make it progressive and functional. 2 birds, one stone and all that

I think it is 13mm, I'm not positive. I am mainly looking for better fit with the rizoma rearsets, the stock master brake light switch is up against the subframe. I think I am going to cancel the brake light switch all together now though.

Almost there! I rebuilt it, painted it, now just waiting on a red cap for the reservoir. I have decided to go without the rear brake light switch to clean the rear up even more.



I bought the cap from Works Connection.

All done, I think the next thing will be custom lines front and back black with black fittings.
