Re: Rear brake problems
Princeable is, smaller the master cylinder bore is the more pressure at wheel cylinders in your case should be 1/2 inch or 13mm, master that is so should work OK.....
The older i get the earlier it seems to get late.

Thanks for advice your all a great helpKawazuki wrote: ↑Sun Jun 14, 2020 11:42 am Don't disagree with diagnosis but I believe a lot stems from the small bike master, its designed to move enough fluid for one piston, now it's asked to move twice the volume which will give a long pedal / not much force so ANY air in the system has a big effect on available effort.

Re: Rear brake problems
I fitted the 11/16 master cylinder from a Honda VFR800, can't remember manufacturer and it works perfectly driving 2 disc brakes.
