Wow, that is gorgeous! 8) I'm guessing that with the RCS19, hoses and reservoir, that lot must have cost somewhere in the region of 350-400 EUROS (how crude of me to ask!)? Might have to see if I can find room for this potentially life-saving upgrade. One morning last week, I was riding through a s...

hi IMHO if you really want to STOP I think you should invest in a brembo rcs 19 master cilinder I've just fitted one and it makes a HUGE difference The standard 16 mm isn't reallly up to today's standard. And it cost less than a set of wave disks http://www.moto-racing.co.uk/item--Brembo-19RCS-Radia...

Looks wicked!

I got an acerbis cyclope fitted,with some minor mods and I get comments varying from "very, very cool" :D to " ugly as hell,mate" :evil:

(nice test to see who your real friends are :lol: )

But I like it so it stays on!
