[Yamaha Stock] Brembo Radial Brake Master Cylinder ASSY

Fits: YAMAHA YZF-R7

Japanese Webike user

5/5

It is a MASTER with excellent cost performance!

[How is it used?
This will be an imprementation with 100% Circuit driving.

Was the one you received as per Image?
Yes.
As shown in the photo, it arrives in a box in Assembly condition.

Was the installation difficult?
If you are able to bleed the air out of the Brake, it is an easy category.
For workability, pull out the Fluid from the Reserver tank to the banjo bolt of the MASTER.
Next, remove the banjo bolt from the OEMMASTER, and then remove and install the MASTERBody in the reverse order.

How was your experience with it?
This time, we replaced the OEM Nisshin Radial master from YZF-R1M, and the fee rings are excellent.
The piston diameter is the same (16mm), but the lever ratio is different, making it slightly stroker. This is very effective in circuit driving, and the BrakeRelease side has a lot of Strokes, which makes control easier. I think it is better than RCSMASTER of brembo. The R7OEMMASTER is 16mm, so it is theoretically more on the Stroke side. The closest thing to a replacement Brembo master is the Racing master 16x18, but since you can get one for about half the price, this master is a very cost-effective option. Moreover, since the banjo is not located on the bottom as usual but on the side, it is highly possible to use the OEM hose. In fact, again, the Banjo bolt and Hose use the OEM as is. However, one thing to note is that brembo usually has a bolt pitch of 1.00mm, but this one has a bolt pitch of 1.25mm. Therefore, if your car is equipped with the OEM Brembo master, the pitch may not match.

[Included Parts:were they on?
There is no particular Included Parts:as it arrives in Assembly condition.

[Was there anything that disappointed you?
None

Two separate banjo bolt Gaskets are required for installation.
Others are basically Bolt On. The hose from the reservoir tank to the MASTER is a transplant from the OEM Nisshin MASTER, because the length and bending angle of the R7 hose are not the same. The hose here, as well as the banjo bolt pitch, has a different diameter nipple than a normal brembo.

Finally, if you are riding a YZF-R1/M and suffering from the OEM patched fee rings, I highly recommend this MASTER. It is the most cost-effective solution for the smallest cost and the largest effect. In other words, Demerit is Zero. View detail

Diversion to GSX1300R HAYABUSA (GX72A)

It was diverted to GSX-1300R (GX72A).
Handlebar is Up with Aluminum Collar and PLOT's EFFEX bar for reference only.

In addition to this product, I also ordered some peripheral parts for the Tank.
There is also a small bracket for the R7 Top Bridge that is available from OEM Parts, so I will order that as well and use it to secure the tank.
At the moment, we are waiting for the delivery of the Tank Bracket for the Aluminum Rod, so we are temporarily fixing it with Tie Wrap.

Banjo bolt was used as is by OEM.
The brake hose outlet is turned sideways at an angle, and the banjo part slightly touches the part where the handlebar is clamped.
The EFFEX bar is pulled toward the front, making it easier to make contact, and a NORMAL handlebar would allow a little more room to shift the bar inward.
I placed it as far outside as possible while adjusting its position with the Switch box and Bar End.
Handlebar is Up but Hose is delivered in NORMAL.
However, if the turnstile on the MASTER side is not shaved, it will contact the front fork and will not attach properly.
The stop lamp switch is not attached in NORMAL mode, so the coupler on the body side was cut and a flat terminal was installed.
Air removal was quick and easy.

When the Handlebar is turned off, the Lever makes contact with the Inner cowl.
I cut it because I don't want it to fall over when I hit it during UTurn and I don't want it to hit Cowl every time I do Handlebar Lock.
I thought it would only take a little, but surprisingly, I had to cut Large.

The Master Cylinder for NORMAL is 5/8.
I tried it on a GSX1300R HAYABUSA because it felt good on another vehicle, but the Lever never hits the Grip when I grip it.
It is now easier to drive into Curve while applying Brakes. I feel that the maneuverability of the gripped area has been improved.

Although the quality and adjustable range is lower than the forged MASTER, we purchased the brembo because of its cost performance and the availability of parts due to its OEM nature. View detail

Replace with Radial master cylinder

OEMMaster Cylinder for Z900 SE (Nisshin) Exchange to
I was sourcing parts with a view to getting a YZF-R7 (2022) OEM adoption to
When I learned that there was a brembo Master Cylinder at an affordable price, I decided to replace it.

The mounting position of the Horse is
z900OEM Rear side
z900SEOEM Lower
YZF-R7brembo side

I was initially looking at replacing it with a Z900SEMASTER.
I replaced Accelerator Wire, Throttle case and Switch Assy with SEOEM.
YZF-R7Brembo master is on the side, so I think these are Large sturdy without replacement.

The Hose will probably not arrive as OEM and should be replaced.
Active's Build a Line car body-specific kit (Stainless black) to +5 cm CustomOrder
and exchanged it with Hose.

Was the one you received as per Image?
The ”finish” of bremboMark is not very good.
(We had to replace it once due to poor accuracy.)

Was the installation difficult?
If you keep the OEM Brake hose, you probably won't reach it subtly. (Not confirmed...)
Therefore, it is recommended that the Hose replacement be done together.
(It took about a full day.)

Brake hose replacement requires a certain amount of knowledge and experience.
We recommend that you contact the Shop (Template)

How was your experience with it?
It started to work ”goof” from the beginning of the grip. (Maybe it is the effect of the Stainless mesh hose.)
Also, the Control property has improved.

[Included Parts:were they on?
Reserver tank is attached, but [Color] I wanted to add a SmokeTank, so this time I replaced it with a Z H2 OEM bremboTank.

Mounting Bracket must be provided separately.
Hose between Tank⇔Cylinder also buy a long one separately.
I cut it to just the right length and installed it.
