refer to post #11 I said it isn't for me.... I am rockin em better than I was a few days ago, BUT I still aint at that point yet. it is for my friend... he just started scrapein lastnight, and we were already in the works of putting one on. just that when we got to the rear master..... the piece to hook the cable to the master was for a honda. so I was just trying to see the setups, and see what the differences were in the kits.... if any. so refer to post #11 and you will see that I said that.
oh and I aint gonna be puttin a hb on the bike, I wanna try and kill it naturally.... stock bars, inflation, full fairings and barely geared.... I know that will limit most of my moves, but I think it will benefit n
me in the long run.

Re: hand brake pics on R6's
yo j.... you see the pic in my post #11... that looks like the little fitting is upside down from how we were trying to make it work huh? I wonder if we could just do it like that, screw in the screw.... then jb weld or something like that around it, to make a firm seal.... it think we can do it. lets get started now since we got some light outside now, instead of doing it by benz headlights
oh, and I will be changing the tail out tonight, cause I am gonna blow that bish out!

Radial masters aren't inherently better, except they fit better on the clipons on some bikes (f4i w/ stock clipons for one). The most important thing in a master is having a small bore and stroke so that it has good hydrolic leverage.
It makes no difference as to what kind of rear master you use. When using the handbrake, the brake fluid simply flows through whatever whatever you're using for a rear master. This is a no brainer; $35 adapter vs $250+ for a new rear master.
Also stunting CAN be cheap. There's lots of us broke college students who stunt. If you've got a few tools and know how to cut and weld steel, you can easily set up a stunt bike for $350 (for gears, hb, 12bar, cage). Tires can be free, riding spots are free, slow wheelies hardly burn any gas, and then it's just replacing a broken lever or peg now and then.

yea theres a lot of guys not running FTI, for most guys spenting $100 for a line and GP tech is a lot easier than shelling out the cash for full throttle. Then when they get the hang of it and want to upgrade to better equiptment then thats up to them. There are plenty of guys still running gp tech or similar and non radial MCs and STILL killin it. Look at the MC bill includes in his full kit is it radial brembo nope, either way your entitled to your personal preference.

it hs the screw but your supposed to still use a hose clamp cuz the screw usually isnt strong enough to hold it close or something, it is just a precaution too if the screw got loose or ever came out. that would be ugly. nobody local has it, maybe the salvage yards but i'm broke til thursday so iz all bad

i already found out this past weekend that a 99-02 r6 rear master should bolt right up and it has the screw and everything
