    Brakes for a bucket, again

    Hey guys, I posted about this a while ago but I can't find the thread.

    I need a new master cylinder. My FXR one crapped itself on Sunday while testing it - I knew this was going to happen some time soon, especially after taking it apart and cleaning it. It was the stock 11mm FXR master cylinder. I had it hooked up to 1 ZXR250 front caliper and the brakes were pretty good.

    Where can I find that radial master cylinder that I see heaps of people using (i.e. Richard)? Or can someone tell me what is a great master cylinder to buy. I don't want cheap crap, I want to have good brakes!

    Thanks for your help.

    Try Bert, he's been bringing those radial masters in from somewhere and selling quite a few around the place.
    Stock is best

    Unfortunately that's not the one I was thinking of. Richards one is a radial master cylinder. The radial master cylinder looks very similar to this:

    I have also messaged Bert.

    Cheers!

    Bert will set you up with one.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.
