    Well got the Brembo 19 RCS Master Cylinder fitted and it looks amazing.

    The only pain when fitting it was that the banjo is not as accessible as the OE lever so you cannot TQ it up using a socket, I hand tightened it with a spanner which was nerve racking as I always seem to strip threads recently !! but all is ok and no leaks after I left it ty wrapped up last night to let ant remaining air be released.

    I was a bit worried that it would just the same as the OE lever, but the difference is amazing so much more feel from the lever and the adjustment is spot on, I am very happy and the quality is spot on, only problem is I will have to get the matching clutch lever (thanks Arthur for telling me they existed).

    Here are some pics :)

    So I have got around to installing the clear integrated rear light which was a simple job and it works brilliantly, it has three quick pulses when the brake is applied and the indicators flash from the middle out


    I had a R+G tail tidy but its a big unit and with the indicators removed it looked rubbish, so and I apologies to the likes of Colin and Megawatt for my skills or complete lack of them, I decided to make my own.

    Unfortunately the sheet of aluminum I found in B and Q is to thin and was all they had so I have had to triple layer it around the bend to support the number plate, it is not pretty, but it does work, I used the R+G led to light the numberplate and in time I will remake, using better materials, unless someone with more skill and the correct kit want to have a go using my awful attempt as a template ?

    I was just seeing if it could be done and if it would look good, which IMO it does compared to the tail tidy.

    Also Steve, I will get around to fitting the extra LED's like you have but didn't have time this time around :) thanks again

    it needs tweaking, thicker metal needed and better finish, but good first try, I think :)

    Well a few hours cutting and filing, some paint and the JamieHRC tail tidy Mk II is finished in 2mm Aluminium, it solid now so I dont have to worry about it falling off and a little trim here and there to make it look a bit better.

    I am a lot happier with the finish, may do the same as dan and carbon wrap it later :cool:

    I think not lol, I have not done a good close up for a reason !! :eek:

    It just looks better without the mounts for the indicators with the integrated rear light fitted :)
