Finally bit the bullet and purchased the R1 master pump, R15 lever shoe (to fit my CNC lever as the MT brake lever won’t fit) Brembo smoked reservoir, Brembo pipe with wire clips, race style pot holder, and R1 pivot bolt and nut. That should be everything needed for the conversion.
Thanks for the brake advice in the other threads guys.
I’ll post the details here once I do the swap in the event someone else wants to upgrade their master.

Nice one exuptoyAre you just going to use the existing brake lines with the new MC? I have already ordered the front brake hoses. I am now in two minds whether to just replace the existing MC with a Brembo RCS19 or run the braided lines with the current MT-10 MC. |

Yeah, for the moment matey. Will probably do the lines over the winter. Gonna see what the weather holds over the next month as I don’t want the bike off the road for any time when we have favourable weather so I may even wait until I source lines and do it all in a oner.
my problem is my job offshore eats into my riding time so I need to take advantage of any weather when home. I’m also in the middle of building another man cave so I need weather to accomplish this too.

Yeah makes sense man.
Its like that up here in Scotland and I don't even work offshore. One day sunny, 2 months rain.
I think last year our summer was a Tuesday :-0

Hel do a R1 to MT10 master cylinder adaptor £15 so you can use your mt braided hoses without changing to R1 hoses.

How did you resolve the mirror mount issue.
I’m looking at a HEL adjustable master cylinder replacement but like the R1, there’s no mirror mount.

Richie You can by a perch clamp with the a M10 mirror hole. There are Brembo or CNC racing ones. Not cheap at about £40. If you're in the UK get in touch too as I can sort you a Hel MC (and more if you want it) and the plug and play module needed to retain the original functionality and cruise control. Details can be found on my site www.cregtech.co.ukChris.  |
