Just got these off the TL website (home away from home) off a late model Busa.......Braided lines on the 4 pots would probably been almost as good but what the hell..................

You may find that the Galfer lines are not LTS approved lines for warrants may be wrong . Get yourself a Radial master cylinder of a GSXR750/1000 K6 those old school ones pictured are just wasting your time put that with a good set up like that .

Those buggers would stop a Mack truck!
Are the TL and 'busa master cylinders the same size?

No, it's not a pick up line but are you single? I tried the 'What the hell..." line on my missus after what I thought was quite a reasonable purchase....I've only just started walking normally again.......

Did a bit of research before i bought this stuff mate and they all told me that the m/c off the busa....which was an 05 would handle it well.........not saying your wrong but any imfo appreciated..........

Did the same on mine mate with the braided lines and the 4 pots and that was great:yes: I then moved on and put the 5/8 MC on with the 6 pots and there was so much more feel and stopping power. You are gonna love it:rockon:

Put a GSXR Radial Master cylinder onto my K3 GSXR & this is the unit you need to Maximize your set up , More feel / more power !! why do you think all new HP bikes have them on now . Link below so you can see the unit I am talking about hope it helps .

We are the goon squad
And we're coming to town
Beep-beep - Beep-beep


Gee... was it hard to predict 6 pot radial calipers coming out once they'd milked the marketing of 4 pots for all it was worth? pffft... the hell it was. All those engineers couldn't figure out that making a 6 piston radial caliper was 'better' than a 4 piston radial caliper? Like fun...

Check the hoses: if they have markings on the plastic sleeve like "DOTxxxxx" (where xxxxx is some number) then they should be fine.
