Problem with handbrake setup

ok this is a long situation:

1. Just got a 08 R6 front master as my handbrake so I flipped it over and now the handbrake hit my johnny p?

2. On my hohey dual caliper setup I just noticed that the busa has to bleeder nipples........do I have to bleed both?

3. I was thinking of switching my 636 front with the R6 good idea or bad idea? the only reason why I was doing this is because I dont have the bleeder nipple hitting the msr clutch.......

4. Good idea or bad idea to have the rear handbrake on top of the clutch

I can put pics up if that would help out

put the clutch on top! yes u have to bleed both nipples take the caliper off set it on the ground so the resevoir is higher than the caliper. put a wrench or something in between the pads so you can bleed it! and keep the r6 master!!

+1 but use cardboard in the caliper ( sorry cheesy, wrench could score the pad, didn't mean to step on you homie )

Re: Problem with handbrake setup

ok now that I got the handbrake **** set up now I have a problem with the clutch hitting the bolt and it seems the only way to make it work is point it down i'm lost

the problem with this way the clutch is almost covering the handgrip and my finger is so freaking close to the edge

Re: Problem with handbrake setup

repace the cable adjuster with a honda one and dont use the adjuster lock nut. it will give you more room to adjust your clutch/handbrake positions

Re: Problem with handbrake setup

try moving the hb on the other side of the clutch bracket. in other words swap places with eachother. that might work.
