There was a topic a little while ago, which contained alot of pics from radial handbrake set-ups... I couldn't find it with the search option

I bought a cbr1000rr master, but can't get it in the right place I would really like to see some pictures from people who mounted their Radial masters as a handbrake...

Thnx

if you have aftermarket clip ons the best place is at the very end of the tube on the opposite side of the clipon as your clutch, if not **** if i know

I rock DB bars, so it's a whole different story, but I can't figure it out Does anyone have more pics ? Or can someone tell me in what topic all these pics were standing ??

there you go

And is everyone rocking the famous "1-finger on the clutch, other finger(s) on the handbrake" method ? Cause when I try to set my handbrake up for that technique, I think I have to cut my clutch lever up reaaaaal short So it doesn't hit my other fingers when I pull it in...

It's shortened allready, but with the radial, the clutch can't be really far away from the master, so then the clutch lever becomes to long... (I rock a normal master cylinder now, so that's the difference I'm trying to explain)

Anyone advice ? Or pictures ?

i use my index for my clutch and my hand break is right under it and i can use my middle finger and ring finger to get ahold of it

Mount the hb inboard so you can have the lever as long as possible, so you can 1 finger it all day without wearing out your finger. Then trim your clutch lever so that you can only get your index finger on it, and it wont interfere with your middle finger operating the brake.
Then lengthen the clutch actuator arm to make the clutch easier to pull with 1 finger

Insane J

I allready did lengthen the clutch actuater arm, so my clutch is easy as hell to pull in... That's not the problem...

But I can't install the clutch to the left of the handbrake, cause it hits the banjo mount place from the radial master...

And I can't install it to the right from the handbrake, cause then, when I pull my clutch in, it almost immediately hits the handbrake, and I can't pull it in no further

If you got an aftermarket clutch, you should be able to get that thing real tight up against the master...

*Tanus*

Did you cut it in half and then weld in a piece of metal or is there a way to do it without welding?

Insane J

I did it by welding...

Thnx for the pic "kj954"... Helped me out a bit further But my clutch (and I also have an aftermarket one) doesn't fit that tight against the master

u can make it work with asv or MSR ez pull, just requires some fandangleing

kj

which one ya got... that pic is of my old setup... I have a moose on there now and it fits just as good... no grinding required.

I'll try to snap another pic tonight.

Insane J

Please do, and the lever I have, comes straight out of a motocross shop... So I don't really know where it's from

Insane J

Great ! That's the topic I was talking about ! Couldn't find it anywhere, thnx

there a place to get aftermarket clutch cables for gixxers? I know it's kind of a NEWB question but I don't know where to get one.

Wheeliest

why would u need an "after market" clutch cable?

how would a 1000rr hydro clutch work for a HB?
