front brake question

Post by tclayton9 »

okay so my stock front master cylinder has a leak. I was wondering when I use a r6 front master cylinder can I keep the front FZR calipers and lines and run the master cylinder to the one line using a smaller banjo bolt, or I have to use two lines like on the r6.

Yes. Use the FZR banjo bolt, but be sure to get new copper crush washers.

OK that was my solution. But how many washers would I need.

If you're only replacing the M/C, then you'll only need two - one on either side of the hose.
