Any extra parts needed to uprgrade to a Brembo radial m/c on the 998 or will the standard fliud reservouir & bracket fit. It's for my track bike so i do not need a light switch.

You can use the stad. reservoir and bracket bu you have to mount it off one of the clipon bolts as the radial doesn't have a mount. You'll just need some new pipe to hook the reservoir up to the cylinder

Here's a pic of how I fitted mine. I used a longer bolt on one of the clip-ons and put a small spacer underneath it, then used the original reservoir bracket. I used a big pair of pliers to twist the bracket as I switched to a smaller reservoir, but you won't need to do this if you keep the original one. I prefer the smaller reservoirs, especially as they have plastic lids so don't corrode!

I also has issues with clearance as I've got a carbon surround on my clocks. I spent ages getting the clip-ons in just the right position so they didn't touch and in the end went for some replacement (slightly longer) bars to give me more room to move things outwards. They actually work quite well and were only £20, just made it all a lot easier and fit nicely with my black parts too!

Did the standard hoses fit ok for lenght.

Are you using a single or double banjo bolt into the Master as there can be clearance issues with the airtubes

[Mello-Yellow]

Double banjo, standard airtubes.
