    12mm brake master

    Anyone know of dirty bikes that use a 12mm front brake master? I need to source one...

    Does it need to be dirt? I have the stock one from my VTR and it is either a 12 or 13.

    Didn't think street bikes would use 12mm pistons, that'd work slick. Does it have a mirror mount boss making it an even better fit?

    YZ, thats the one that uses a stick, you shove it in the spokes to stop, right?

    I am heading out to the shop shortly and will check on that master. If I do still have it, which I am pretty sure I do, I think I am heading to MX207 on Sunday if the weather looks good.

    I don't have the VTR one anymore but I do have one from a Yamaha Warrior ATV and one from an older VFR, 700 I think.

    Checking my math, it looks like a 12mm master is going to be the minimum, 14mm is as big as I want to go, anything in that range that has a brake light switch and a mirror mount works for me.
