Used in BirdCity155

I used it on a BirdCity155 (2023 model) Rear brake master. This Horizontal Type 11mm seems to be just right.
The banjo extraction position is not much different from that of the OEM, so the OEMHose can be used as is.
I am not aware of this because I replaced the Front master as well, but if you replace only the Rear master, you need to work on the interlocking Brake.
*If removed, the front brake will fail.
I had to cut it off a little because it interferes with the Handlebar Cover. View detail

For Single caliper

I installed it on a BirdCity 155 (2023) and it is very loose. I think it is for single caliper because it seems to grip in.
Since it uses a mechanical switch, it is durable (many MASTERs from overseas manufacturers are pressure-sensitive and less durable). View detail

Stroke deepens.

As I posted the other day, it was originally a horizontal 5/8.
Manufacturer recommendation was 19mm, but I actually put on 19
It is possible to grip more lightly and control by the amount of Stroke.
17mm, isn't it?
I bought it separately and replaced it with a new one.
If you grip it all the way down, you can bring it to full lock,
It is possible to control the effect by the amount of grip, not by the force,
This was the best choice for my riding style. View detail

Also for Restore of older vehicles.

[How is it used?
I acquired this product as part of the Restore process when I reached middle age, having acquired the vehicle of my dreams that I was unable to obtain during my Blue Spring days, "Run" "Bend" "Stop" The most important of the "Stop" Focusing on NISSIN for Peace of Mind In
Was the one you received as per Image?
It was the equipment that was equipped with Large body on the vehicle that I admired in the Racer replica era from the late 1980's. It was a product just like Image, and I am thankful for the age when we can easily purchase products with higher performance than those days at Motorcycle accessory stores and Webike.
How did it compare to other products?
The comparison was a longing for those of our generation. "Brembo" When YamahaOEM Product It was

I also have a feeling that it would be better to stick with the OEM, which I have always felt was the best way to go. And, above all, it is impossible to get new parts for the 1987 Motorcycle because the manufacturer has stopped selling them.
It's not that we don't have overhaul kits, but it's just not worth the time, effort, and money for something that doesn't work as well as it should...

[Points to note]
Please check the compatibility with the Brake Caliper and the standard before purchasing.
When installing, be sure to connect and bleed the brake fluid properly, and be sure to install and maintain the brake troublemaker properly, as it can kill you and others.

Installed on SKYWAVE250 burgman (CJ43A)

The front master cylinder is deteriorating and I bought it instead of OH.
It has bolt holes for mirrors (with Reserver tank), so it may not be suitable for Cowl mirror cars.

It is more like an OEMSpec. ready-made product sold in Rose than aftermarket parts, and the prices are reasonable.
It is made by NISSIN, a trusted manufacturer, so people who do not want to use cheap Chinese products can rest assured.

Since it is basically an OEMSpec, there is no difference in feel between NORMAL and LARGE, and it is a kind of dress-up parts, but it comes with an adjust lever as a byproduct. View detail

I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the DOT3 notation on the lid.

I took the product out of the box and looked at the lid. Using SEA BASSOEMDOT3." The OEM brake cylinder indicated that DOT4 was used. After much thought, I decided to use DOT4 since I did not replace the caliper this time. I ran a test run and there seemed to be nothing wrong. Installation was easy. View detail

Very Controllable

Used on SV650X.
Since the OEM has a horizontal 5/8, the fit is 19mm, so it was installed.
I wanted to use the OEM Brake hose, so I bit on the Offset adapter.
The Hose could be installed without any difficulty at all, and the difficulty level of the work was at the beginner's level.
Brake switch is also changed from OEMNisshin to Radial masterNisshin,
Installed without tampering anywhere.
Air bleeding, which I had heard was time-consuming, was completed in 3 minutes because of the Breeder on the MASTER side.

As far as the ride goes, I was quite torn between this and the 17mm before I bought it,
As a result, I have a slight regret that I should have gone with 17mm.
Everyone will have their own preferences, but the reason I want to put on Radial master is,
Because I want to control Brake by the amount of grip, not Breaking by force,
Stroke wants to take plenty.
At 19mm, it was tighter than I expected, and I would prefer to be able to grip it a little more.
However, it is still quite different from OEM horizontal placement.
It is very easy to bed in while leaving a small amount of front brake.

I will buy a 17mm one of these days and give it a try. View detail

Recommendation especially for those who are not confident in Breaking

I bought this to improve the Brake area.

It looks NORMAL and fits well with Left Side OEMClutch.

I personally like the fact that it is a Master Cylinder when you look closely, so the performance has been casually improved.

It is better than NORMAL because it is easier to control and the amount of deceleration of the motorcycle is proportional to the amount of grip.

It is a recommendation especially for those who are not confident in their breaking skills, as it is easy to control and operates calmly even in a sudden panic break.
(Safety is dramatically improved.)

Tuning both cars and motorcycles is better to first tweak the Tire, Foot and Brake area. View detail

It is over the price

I have installed this on a 2008 ABSMODEL CB400SB. The reason why I decided to install it on my CB400SB is that the OEM Master Cylinder is 15 years old this year and I thought it was time to change the overhaul to Semi-radial. This year's CB has a double disk, but since it is a single-press 3-pot, the time lag after the OEM lever is held is far from my ideal brake with a large time lag. I think it is a shame that the CB is equipped with a single-press caliper, because it eliminates the good qualities of the CB. (As I thought, the single push Caliper was still improved to opposing 4 pots when the Model was changed). I have changed various pads to improve the time lag and changed the brake fluid to BF4 from WAKOS to improve the time lag a little, but it is a characteristic of Caliper. But after I installed Nisshin's Semi-radial master, the time lag is gone and I am very satisfied with it. To be honest, I thought that Semi-radial would not be much different from OEM, but it is not at all. With the OEM master, I felt the front fork suddenly start to lag after I hold the lever, and then I felt the front fork start to lag suddenly! The Lever touch is much stiffer than the OEM. The price is not too expensive, and I am satisfied with the Large brakes because I have no more complaints about the Brakes over the years.

Here is the installation review
First of all, the brake switch will not be long enough, so wiring will be required. I also expected this, but if you are using a custom lever, you will not be able to use it. (I remember that Nisshin only offered Lever in Silver color in this Semi-radial, but there may be a Black color as well.) I think this is one of the best features of this Master Cylinder. The air bleed was very easy to do, which is one of the good points of this Master Cylinder, and I think it will take less than 30 minutes if you follow the normal procedure. If you hold the lever at an angle to the body of the car, the air in the Master Cylinder can be easily released.

I personally felt it was one more Review.
The convex part that holds the banjo bolt faces almost directly down, so the direction of the hose is limited to either directly above or directly below the bolt. In my case, because I have an ABSMODEL, it is impossible to use an external Hose, and since the angle of the banjo bolt cannot be changed, I ended up with a mounting position that puts a lot of load on the Hose, either directly above or directly below the bolt. The Hose is not designed to be installed directly above or directly below the Torque wrench, so the Hose would have to be installed directly below the Torque wrench. If the convex to hold the Hose had come out from the side, there would have been no burden on the Hose, so it would have been better to have the convex on the side like the OEM. (I plan to consult a Motorcycle shop at that time as the Brake hose is old and I plan to change it.) If you have a mesh hose and can change the direction of the banjo, I think you should prepare a diagonal banjo so that you can work smoothly. I had to re-grease the moving parts of the lever because they looked dirty. I thought I could see the Fluid if I changed the direction, but I didn't because it would have put a load on the hose. I have a water temperature gauge next to the inner cowl, but it is very difficult to see the tank. I used M10×1.25 bolt from Swage line. View detail

Installed on a 2021 MT-09SP

Yamaha's MT-09SP has a Cruise Control function, which seems to be different from a normal switch, and even if it can be installed mechanically, there seem to be many problems such as the Stop-lamp staying on electrically or errors related to the cruise control. I was thinking of asking a shop that knows about it, but they seemed to be busy, so I did it by myself for now.
I should have measured the voltage and other parameters properly to make a corresponding product, but I am an amateur electrician and I am relying on Net information without much understanding of the situation.

The banjo adapter can be used as it is by simply adjusting the installation direction, and only the banjo bolt was additionally purchased with a brembo compatible Pitch 1.0 short. I purchased a short Pitch 1.0 bolt for the brembo.
(Fluid tanks are not included and must be purchased separately.)

I had been removing the brake area of the MT-09 four times to bleed the air out, but the air did not bleed out and it took 2 to 3 days to return to the original touch, so I was not very good at this work. I was impressed that the touch came back and it was as expected from brembo.

Next, the problem is switch related. MT-09SPOEMSwitch uses two switches, and each switch is turned off when Lever is pulled from the always-on state.
The switch that came with the CORSA Corta is ON when the Lever is pulled, so I replaced the switch to match the OEM operation.

On the crucon side, some people had installed a switch on top of the switch, but I was not confident that I could install it properly, so I tried to turn off the crucon by linking it with the Brake switchWiring, which is always on, via Relay.
Relay from Brake switchWiring may affect other devices, but this has not been confirmed.

The Stop-lamp is now turned off when the lever is pulled, and the cruise control is also turned off in conjunction with the brake switch, but the position where the brake switch is activated is too far away, and when the cruise control is activated, the cruise control accelerates even though the brake is decelerating. This is a very dangerous situation, so there is room for improvement.
The best position is where the Brake starts to be applied, but it is a bit high even at the same height as the attached Switch, so it needs to be adjusted, but it is quite difficult because it seems to need adjustment in 0.5mm increments with the Silicon sealant.
*I may keep the crucon sealed for a while, or maybe only use it 2 or 3 times a year….

As for my impressions of Master Cylinder, everything I had been dissatisfied with in OEMBrake is now to my liking.
I feel like I have a wider range of input when applying Brake and it is very easy to Control.
I wanted to replace it sooner, but the Switch problem was not solved and I had to leave it for almost a year after purchase. View detail
