Anyone see these? I used similar on an rgv race bike, it was rebranded copy sold at the track for 200 a few years ago. Anyone any experience with these on rvf/vfrs??

there is a general consensus that you should not compromise on the things that slow you down like cheapo brembo rip off master cylinders and Chinese wavy disks

it's a Thailand copy.

Lots of bike bits coming from over there lately, espcially 'NOS' 1960's moped parts.. there actually modern day reproductions, there not too bad, but not as good as the real-deal (which are ultra-rare these days).

However, it is a copy and it's highly unlikely it's going to be anywhere near as good as an authentic product, especially when taking into account the price.

I wouldn't risk it personally, just incase it failed.

i presume a reproduced part is 100% better than my 15 year old stock item?

No way I would trust my life to a cheep China replica.

I'm sure your 15 year old OEM brake master is much safer than theese cheep China products, and it will probaly work for the next 15 years where the China thing probaly will be in the junkyard in a very short time.
