Teddagreek and Retrittion,

Sorry for taking so long to finish this.

The delay was the mirror mount, I had none. So I was in the process of designing and cnc one when I discovered that Triumph had exactly what I was thinking of making.

Triumph has a brake/clutch clamp with a mirror post designed into the part and a brake reservoir bracket that is designed to work with the clamp.

The reservoir bracket needed to be modified because of the hand guards. I had to change the direction by cutting and tigging an extension into the bracket.

Here is a parts list:
1-2007 R1/R6 Brembo 16mm Front Radial Master Cylinder
2-Goodridge Universal Brake Line: Part# 11330-E
3-Goodridge Banjo Male Straight: Part# 592-3BK
4- Goodridge Banjo Male 35deg: Part# 593-03BK
5-Triumph Clamp, Clutch Lever Bracket: Part# T2025450
6-Triumph Reservoir Bracket: Part# T2040892
7-LSL Speed Bleeders for M8x1.25: Part# SB8125 (quantity 2) One for the Caliper and the other for the Master Cylinder.














Note: Triumph and KTM has Nissan Radial Front Master Cylinder’s with the items that I purchased separately as OEM.

More stopping power because of the way they're designed. I've got one off a gsxr600 as a rear handbrake on my stuntbike............

I wonder if it would be possible to find a braided brake line that would fit? Sorry, just being picky. Nice setup!
