You mean these?
If your master cylinder isn't working properly maybe it's not adjusted well, or bled properly or needs an overhaul kit.
Personally i'd rather use a good set of coerce and a Honda MC than a dodgey set of chinese bits.
Your money though!

Seer clear of aftermarket Chinese master cylinders. They are often of low quality manufacture with parts and seals which very very nearly fit.
Other than that, interested to see your experience of the rearsets, particularly regards fitting, finish and crash resistance - which is where material quality and metallurgy, which Chinky products are often lacking in, will show.

A-men, friend had a set a few years ago that bent and flexed if you stood up on them.
The MC was also a joke, after about a week it started leaking if you put any pressure on it.

that bolt with the wires comming out is a banjo bolt pressure switch, so you connect the wires to where your back brake plugs in , the pressure of your foot forcing the fluid thru the switch activates your brake light, undo that bolt place on a copper washer then the brake line then another copper washer tighten up bleed brake , job done
