    Posted: 10 May 2016 at 09:20
Hi all,

I have a pair of Brembo Master cylinders for my Gen 2 Tuono but understand I need to change the lines due to the required banjo connection at the master cylinder.

Can anyone advise if the V4 lines would be a straight fit as opposed to getting custom made ones?

Regards

Phil

Hi RRB,

Yep it's a Gen 2 and want to give the brakes a more modern feel after riding my sons RSV4 made my brake feel as if they lacked feel and bite so thought radial master cylinder would be a step in the right direction.

No need to swap lines.
Hel do a std to radial converter which just attaches onto the bottom of the m/c.
It takes about 5 mins to put on.
About a tenner.
