I'm just about to start work on my 2012 WR450 Super Single. I have a spare 1125 front end with magnesium wheel, lighter 5MM rotor and plenty of race pads. I'm thinking the bike will weigh 260-270. Will the Nissin 14mm Front Master Cylinder that American Sport Bike sells be enough? Or would the Accossato Radial Front Brake Master Cylinder Kit from EBR be a better choice? Or do you have a better suggestion? | ||

personally..i think anything would be adequate for stopping a bike that light...that is A LOT of brake for a bike that weighs about 200lbs. less than an 1125...probably whichever you feel comfortable with...although im sure others will chime in I bet either would be just fine  Although I really wanna see what it looks like when its all put together!!!

I think you're right. On my 1125 with the same setup I could do stoppies. But I would like to hear what others have to say about those master cylinders in this situation. I think it'll look good. Have you ever seen the one's that Geoff Maloney at GpTech puts out with TZ250 bodywork? There's a PDF from the USGPRU that Geoff put together on how to build one. It's pretty cool. | ||

If you are using the ZTL2 caliper, I'd still go with something like an RCS19. Though it will be a whole hell of a lot of brake, if you go with a 14 you may find you really have to pull the level a lot to get brake action. |
