    Guys, apologies in advance, im sure this has been done to death but I couldn't find a specific answer using the search function.

    I have followed an ebay link from a member here to an Italian seller of the Brembo master cylinders. The kit is for the cylinder, lever, double banjo and it says fits handlebars of 22mm.

    Do I require anything else to fit this like any brackets etc? I have asked the seller but translating to and from Italian has us both a bit confused,.

    TIA

    You will need the reservoir unless it comes in the kit? and a brake light switch, but again it may come in the kit

    Ah I didn't even think about the reservoir, it can't use the standard one then?

    You can use the original reservoir you'll just need a new bracket and hose clip for attaching MC if it's an RCS it should already come with the brake light switch

    Nice one, it doesn't say anything about a brake light switch in the add. so to rule out me being thick this will be ok wont it?

    I know that seems really obvious but I have bought new kit in the past and when I go to fit it its ever so slightly wrong ha ha.

    the rcs comes with a double banjo bolt, if you are running a single set up order the correct bolt now!

    I bought a nice wee reservoir bracket, called a ladybird. You can adjust to suit. It tidies up the master cylinder.
    As mentioned by sps 170373.new bracket.

    Thanks guys, I found the lady bird clamp on eBay and I'll speak to Mike at BDS on Monday and see what it's gonna cost me all in.

    I've just ordered some Braided lines but in a race set up so I need to order a double banjo bolt to fit 2 lines instead of 1, what size banjo do I need please?

    Thanks.

    You may find that the Banjo supplied with the RCS maybe slightly too long. As you changing to braided lines the banjo's are thinner than standard . I got my lines from Mike at BDS and he gave me a new banjo to suit the HEL lines.

    It's coming Thursday and being fitted Monday so hopefully it'll fit the Venhill lines but if not I did tell the garage I may need a different one so fingers crossed.
