    Depending on your speed a R6 is better, slightly, but may have the same affect.... Thats why I went to the 19RCS is a rock and never fades.

    Accossato. It's good.

    GSXR NISSIN production was inconsistent... some solid, some mushy.
    R1/6 Brembo was built to better tolerances but has different dimensions. 16mm bore instead of 19.

    Both work well w/ SV calipers. Only a slight difference is in lever pressure and feel.


    My Nissin was mushy... went w/ a 19x18 Accosatto.

    I have one for sale. Will post pics/details when I get home from work tonight.

    I replaced it with a nisin. The R6 brembo was too spongy for me.

    Re: WTB: 06+ R6/R1 Front Brake Master cylinder

    As I understand it...

    The 16mm bore of the yamaha brembo requires more lever travel but has more mechanical leverage. Braking feel is through lever travel.
    The 19mm bore of the suzuki nissin requires more force but doesn't travel as far. Braking feel is through lever pressure.


    I prefer the charactaristics of the 19mm, however the 16mm brembo from the Yamaha is of better quality than the nissin off the Suzuki.

    That's why i went with the Accossado.

    Yeah, that about sums up my experience with both. I like the feel of the 19mm bore better. Must be my manly hands

    I had one that sucked donkey balls. I'm pretty sure that some sting and a couple blocks of wood wood have had better feel...
