Hello peeps,

I have been thinking about upgrading my front brakes over the winter and have been thinking of starting with the master cylinder and then the front calipers.

I have been looking at the Brembo Radial master cylinder and was wondering if it came with a front brake light switch? If not are there other good makes that have the switch I am after? Or is it worth doing at all?

The other thing was the calipers. At present, I have the Brembo gold four pot ones with the one piece brake pads. I know they have the 60 or 65mm spacing when bolting them to the fork legs.

Is there that much difference between the ones I have and the Brembo ones that run the four pads.? ( Goldlines I think.)

At the moment the front brake set up is good. Its in good order with braided hoses and always has fresh fluid etc. But I have heard Ducati owners stating that these four pad brembo calipers are awsome.

I just want a few words of wisdom if any one has upgraded with these or any parts that I have mentioned.

Cheers,

DC.
