    This did go out my head a bit with the crash but when i was going ok i thought gotta put this up on the forum when i get back so.....

    ZX6R B1H I'm going to use to race when i got it lever was spongy as it already had braided lines i flushed changed fluid to brembo still spongy i knew this was gonna get brake fade .

    I have a Brembo on the blade but heard so many good things about the Accossato so i thought id try one i wasn't expecting it too be just as good but it was :D

    I ordered the Accossato off mike at Accossato | Speedo healer | Data Tool Accossato Radial Master Cylinder 19 x 20 like brembo | eBay

    Came next day brilliant service and i needed a long lever due to a massive kill switch 1 was sent out same day and Mike told me to just return short lever when i had decided what i needed and was happy cracking !

    NO brake fade all day (5 and half sessions lol) at all didn't have to span adjust really happy with the master cylinder and would buy one again

    19 x 20 is on or off if you like a bit of feel i the lever id go for the 19x 18

    and a big thanks to bikers discount store for all your help i will definitely use you again

    Cheers Lee

    I've always used race clip-ons and always have extra bars with me, you just never know, and to ahve to pack up early because one broke and I didn't have a replacement would pee me right off, knowing there only like 15£ or so....

    I had one of these on my old Triupmh daytona 650, great bit of kit. When I sold my daytona i sold the MC to a mate for his race bike and he loves it!

    Bought one of these at the show from them. Seemed like a decent guy and gave me a great deal.

    got the 19x18 MC and folding lever. Clutch lever and Hell lines for front all in for £300. happy with that.

    now have some short pazzo's up for sale to help fund the purchase :)

    Cheers wedge, was well pleased tbh... Heard good things about them so shall see. Have been getting fade so with some dual carbon pads and this little lot should sort out the stopping power for not a huge outlay.

    Another mod ticked off the list for next year ;)

    I take it you can't use Pazzos on these MC's Jimbo?

    I'm giving serious consideration to one of these over a Brembo RCS but have Pazzo levers currently??

    No mate I don't think they do. They come with folding levers and at that price I didn't ask.

    Like my pazzo's and great on the road, but think the shorties are a little short for me on track so happy to swap.

    Plus the sale return of the pazzos brings the cost down further. The levers look pretty trick too mate so sure you won't be too worried....

    Crap pics but get the idea.

    I'm not a fan, don't like the finish of them, I had two one on my tracker GSXR1 and one on my Blade BOTH of them leaked I called Mr Man at BDS and he said it had never happened before funny coz I met a lad on a Z1 who also had one leaking at the bleed nipple! anyway he said it may stop wtf, gave up after the grey silicone started to peal off, never again! Brembo all the way, seems BDS buys some PR by giving. Chris Walker etc his junk.
