damn man, didnt know you were still posting up on here, so you went with the brakelight micro switch for the front master?
Knew of a couple who treid it, but they all went to the banjo pressure switch as it is a cleaner install and they didnt have any issues with relaibility.
But as what mariano said the banjo switch is NOT instantaneous when you touch the lever for bringing the lights on, slight hesitation.
also with the brembo you MAY have to mod a new way to mount up your reservoir especially if you have clip-ons.

And yeah i am 1 step closer to the lightness, for front brakes.

thanks for the advice man. since i am using the stock clipons, if i have to mod the mount for my reservoir, what would i have to do? shorten it, lengthen it, or buy a different mount?

yea man your brakes are going to be bad ass. your going to be able to stop on a dime!!!

i sent her that link but she is still nervous, as am i, of taking the bike apart. lol

my exhaust finally came in. and i still have yet to be charged on my credit card for it.... freebie anyone?? lol

















I have a couple of questions about it.

Will I need some sort of defouler since it is catless so I don't get a FI light? I already had the servo motor fix on my bike right now with my yoshi pipe. I was sondering if I needed anything more?

Also, I see it comes with the license plate bracket but I thought it was going to be a lil more then just that. Like it would have the plate holder and plate light built in too ass well? where can i get one to fit this perfectly if tahts the case.

and finally, judging from these pictures does it look like these pipes are titanium? it doesn't say evo on the packaging as far as i can tell....

thanks guys!

Yeah that's Titanium. You see how it almost has an aluminum alloy sheen to it. As soon as you get some heat on it and starts to blue - you'll be happy. The stainless steel has more of a "polish to it." And you don't need anything else for the FI. Just a custom tune once you get all your parts on there.

And +1 on the shift star. Another item that should've been in the original stock design.

Also, with the stock clip-ons you'll be able to re-use your stock resevoir and just trim the hose to fit the brembo master. Also, you'll need a banjo bolt for the Brembo unit (Tapered??)

I believe the brembo master cyl has a diff thread pattern to it.

The brembo master DOES INDEED have a different thread pitch, would send you one, but all my shit is shipped and i wont see it till mid/late january.
and in case you didnt know it you will need a double banjo bolt for the master if using the superbikelines.

I use goodrigde fittings personally or for the master pressure contact switch sold at the local ducati shop (think euro/brembo).
