I am looking to update the brakes on my 99 748Bip and am looking at P34 calipers (much as I would love a bling JHP radial set up I don't have the extra grand) with braided hoses and a radial master cylinder. The question is which one?

The two (Brembo) options I can see are the standard fit 999PSC radial lever with a 18mm bore and unknown ratio or race lever with 19mm bore and 18 ratio.

I will still be using the bike on the road and hence don't want to be using supersoft pads to compensate for reduced hydraulic leverage. Also the 999 mc comes with a brake light switch.

What I'm really asking is has anyone tried to fit the standard 999 radial master cylinder to a 748-99*. How does it compare to the race item, any thoughts.

Cheers Andy
