    Cable Clutch Master Cylinder switch help

    Anyone familiar with newer cable clutch microswitches on newer bikes? Like this? Been told there is a Yamaha version. How does it work? Is there something on the lever to push on the switch internally? Anyone have one of these set ups?

    Effects of Master Cylinder Size, Lever Length, ect.

    What size master cylinder bore

    I'm thinking of changing both master cylinders on the handle bars to some newer Nissin units. I rebuilt the stock Vmax ones and one is leaking and I don't like how the powder coating came out. For the clutch MC, I assume I should stay with the bore size that the stock MC has. I have 6 piston...

    94 FZR brake master??

    Anyone know the size of a 94 FZR1000 EXUP brake master? Reason I ask is because I'm running 94 FZR 6 POTS with a Nissin master. Now it takes a lot of travel to get the good brake pressure I feel it could be better. I thought maybe my clutch and brake nissin masters were ZX7R's so I ordered...

    FJR master guys

    If you're running FJR masters and levers, does your clutch lever pull directly to the grip or does it sort of go below? Mine goes to the bottom of the grip, and I'm wondering if the lever is a little bent or if it's designed that way on the FJR.
