Have a look on my brake replacement thread, with the stock master cyl you will get very powerfull brakes but a long lever travel as you need to move more fluid to power the bigger pistons in the CBR calipers. Best compromise is matching it with the master cyl from a blade or cbr600

Those ones on ebay are off the later model storm. I don't think they where upgraded at all, just the colour changed. :thumbup:

The linked ones above are either cbr600 or cbr900 they have the two pins for the pads so they will be upgraded with bigger pistons .

Oops that will teach me for only reading the title and looking at the pic. :lol:

Yes they will be better than the standard storm ones then.

Marty I think they are a bit expensive mate.

You got braided lines already ?? If not, they're probably a better way to spend your money.

The full cbr600f4i brake system with braided lines is the best money spent .
Keep an eye on eBay as I got the full set up for £25 :) last year
