Looking to buy the above, there are so many different combinations of this, so whats the best, or should I say the best for ALL ROUND riding, both Track Days and on the street, though I am not riding on the street much now

I made the decision to buy one when building my 748R track bike as the standard one was nakerd. I got the 19 X 20 one and how good does it feel!!!! Two fingered progressive braking seriously good on the track!
I got it from 'Mouse the bike' he sells them direct from Italy on ebay! £135. Came within the week and have had a few other parts from him with no issues what so ever!!

Chrisiball, yea Isaw that, thats why I am thinking of buying one, he does a KIT as well, Is the 18 X 20 lighter, or you have found no real problems with yours? Would the 18 X 20 be better if Im not doing Track Days all the time ? Or is there not alot of difference ?

19 x 18 is a good (and the most popular) option. Good feel..19x20 is a bit 'grabbier'.

Yeah as Nat says, the 19 x 20 is a bit grabier but it feels awesome, the lever moves about 5mm and the braking just feels so solid! 19 x 18 might be a bit more forgiving if its for the road tho.

Without wishing to sound thick I have one on my Senna and it's revolutionized the braking, but for some reason the rear brake light doesn't work now. A bit annoying but luckily I have a friendly MOTer, but mates get a bit ****ed off when following. What can I do, anything easy?

Bostrom998, you need a pressure switch banjo bolt with a Brembo radial m/c (assuming you don't already have one). Does your brake light still work on the rear brake?
