CB400f Brake Master Input
« on: February 20, 2017, 09:12:59 AM »
Morning Everyone!

Hey was kicking around what i'm going to do for a brake master on my cb400f track/fun bike.  I'm running the stock caliper with Geoffery's caliper piston and thinned/drilled rotor.  I was thinking do a 11mm master and probably use one off a ktm with a one piece braided line.

Any input would be greatly appreciated!

11mm for a single disc would work. Closer to 13mm for a dual setup is nicer feel without fatiguing your hand to get the duals to lock.

So you're saying 11 is a good pick for a single?  Thanks!
