WTB 14mm brake master for SV650

[carsick]

Anybody have a 14mm bore brake master to fit 7/8" clipons for my 1st gen track SV? Any make or model would probably do, preferably with lever and reservoir to make it an easy swap. No idea what's on there now, says 5/8" on it. It takes a fair amount of effort to pull, without much feel. Input, suggestions, ideas all welcome!

14mm? Why so small?

I run a 19x18mm Accosatto.

You do realize that 14mm is smaller than 5/8" right?

I run a 19x18mm Accosatto.

Radial masters use a different linkage, the leverage ratio is greater allowing a larger bore. If you would like to donate your blingin' Awesomosatto master to my cause I will change my mind on the stock type 14mm...

Uh, yeah. A smaller bore master creates more pressure with less volume, just what I'm looking for regarding more braking force with more feel. But I'll trade you if you think bigger is better here!

Just buy a Brembo 19RCS......or use a GSXR radial from a 09 1000.

+1 for the GSX-R radial master. My SV had one on it when I bought it. It worked great and is now my spare MC. (ask Adam, aka Rada how it works, since he had a chance to race with it when he shattered his during one round of racing)

Like Pete, I now use a 19x18 Accossato radial.

Btw. I don't think the sticker is 14mm. Never heard of a master that small.

any 05+ GSX-R 600/750/1000 will fit your bike.
it's usually around $50 used for one.

Thanks for the replies guys! I am leaning toward the radial GSXR route, found an unmolested 2011 on evilbay. Will I need different lines? It looks like the banjo is straight down, mine is straight out.

Be aware... The Nissin radial units found on most GSXR's can be a crap shoot. Some units are great and give a firm lever. Others are squishy and don't give much feel. It'll still stop great but you may never get a firm lever out of it if you get a squisher.

You may want to consider a stock 16x18 Brembo off an r1 or r6

The Daytona branded Nissin radial I ran on my GS was a 14mm. I've got 13mm and 12mm conventionals on my dirty derived toys...

I'll be relegating my Nissin to back up over the winter and buy a Brembo or Accossato. My Gixxer Nissin has lot's of power and crap feel.

Thanks, all set with a radial Nissin now.
