R1 calipers, HH pads, XJR-1300 master cyl=killer brakes.
Do you want me to get you a master cylinder? I can assure you you won't
send it back.
I had the first organised ride with a total of 4 Maxes on Saturday. Two of
them are fitting my brake setup right away so I'm ordering the parts for
them. If you want to try it I won't charge you anything till you decide to
keep it. If you don't want it you pay postage back.
You don't have anything to lose. Only doing this 'cause you took the
trouble to send me some stuff once. It's worth a try. You guys believe
because it's cheaper than a killer Brembo setup or something it can't be
effective and reliable, well you non believers are all wrong. Fact is all
I did was take the entire setup off the XJR and fit to Max, how can it not
work?
Furthermore, you can bet your bottom $ that the new FJR-1300 will have
exactly the same front brake setup.
