RCS19 or RCS19 Corsa Corta Master Cylinder

[Kiwi Rider]

Well I’m looking for the right price that I can’t pass up. Going to do the rcs19. Will find some 4pots later. Maybe off another bike that will bolt on. For now I attempted bleeding the master and this lil video is what I got.

That looks to me like the piston is sticking and not returning fully.
Not good.
Strip it and recheck the assembly is correct.
You did tighten the banjo bolt before you released the lever, right?

yes. Will strip it in morning. Not hard to mess up assembly but maybe I did. Used new piston seals and spring

Or to save some cash, go to Ebay and find a Yamaha R1 Brembo MC that is complete and ready to go, can probably find one for less than $200

And yes, there is pie

07-08 R1 master only about 92 on fleabay. New lever 100 to match mine. The fluid cup. This is a much cheaper option. Will the 7-8 years work fine or is there a better one to choose from

Decisions damit. I hate them. Time for a drink and a slice of pie. It’s 5oclock somewhere

Since when does it have to be five to eat pie?

 

[ROADTOAD1340]

I eat these meat pies a couple of time a week , they come in 4 pack , there are 2 meals right there , and I been eating these since I was a fat boy ....hahahah

Four N Twenty for me, go to for an easy lunch/dinner.

I was wondering the 4 n 20 too !

Wow! where have they been all my life. Moving to NZ.....

Meat pies are something American cuisine doesn't do very well, with the notable exception of chicken pot pie.

Like Tom Petty says, the waiting is the hardest part

More of an Aussie thing. I probably eat it 4-5 times a week.

 

[SSGT_B]

Shipped on the 23rd according to revzilla. Still ups has not picked it up. No telling when the parts will be here. I’ll update when I get them

Haha!
Here’s a job I found for you mate, money’s ok too. . .

 

[Berlin Germany]

Went and dug the bike out. Only found 2 numbers on the MC...a small 6 and a large 16 on the top of the lever carrier. Of course the Brembo logo precedes these numbers

the large 16 should be the dia in "mm" of the pump´s piston ;-)
the original haya-brake-pump-piston is 5/8" ~ 16 mm
and it works fine at my fj1200 with entire hayabusa front fork.

the ducati / brembo radials i use have a dia of 17 mm - still usefull for street use
bigger (e.g. 19mm) is very dangerous up to deathifying - when over braking at the front wheel in a scary moment
on the other hand - on racetrack! the 19 is very usefull ;-)

I run a RCS17 on the Busa , got a RCS19 for the ZX14R . I like the feel / feedback the RCS17 give , mated up to the black GP4RX , and the huge 330mm ductile iron rotors .
The Kawasaki will have the same calipers , but standard rotors for now , with the possibility of 330mm stainless rotors to follow .
