brakes

[j pat]

i was thinking about building a hyd right hand brake system for rs , found in my stuff a small master cyl type that would work does not have an out side opening,is it possible to remove inturnal spring and use the cyl as a slave cyl ,by useing a master cyl on handle bars wondering if ths would supply brake fluid with pressure to small master cyl mounted & conected with linkage to activate the pedal----any info about this would be great

Do yourself a favor...buy an ISCI system. nojoke

Have to agree..!!

:agree: not that easy and if there is one thing you don't want to fail it would be the brakes. If not done right it could interfere with the proper function of the normal system. Jmho...

Does any one know any more about this one?

Seems a lot cheaper than the ISCI unit though reading the description I wonder if it replaces the foot brake unlike the ISCI one.

Throw my vote up onto the ISCI pile! :2thumbs:
It's a proven product from a Company that builds to the highest quality.
Expensive? How expensive could a brake failure be?? :yikes:

You get what you pay for. This one seems to be missing a lot of necessary components, and there are absolutely no reviews. That tells me something.

I believe this is the same one, I inquired about, from them, months ago. No time to look up right now. Their reply was less then good. "Replaces right handlebar mounted cyclinder" "no other information available"
I will pass again.

Well, since there's nothing up there to replace... I guess it seems pointless to put that up there! :roflblack:

I will throw in with the others. If you are going to add a hand brake, the ISCI system seems to be a proven system in most cases. To formulate a system like that from scratch seems way to much work and effort for the end results. Unless--you are going to come up with something better, market it to the masses, and become rich.

DIY always gives me full satisfaction and sense of self reliant. You must know what your doing and go for it and ensure make it safe and good luck. Let us know how successful you are.:yes:

The http://viets-performance.com/Sportbi...ke-Upgrade-Kit seemsto be a brembo hand brake master cylender only without the entire system to conjoin the foot brake you would have a incomplete system.
+1 for the ISCI system tried and proven well worth the money if indeed u have to have a hand brake.
