Sneaky google says 5/8 is std for RSV- not sure if someone has one and can confirm.

Get the right m/c though mate, it would be folly not to do this upgrade correctly

Not sure, but you could try and get an rsv one, you will know it's the right one then :grin:

just for comparison, i use standard nc35 calipers and an R6 Nissin master cylinder. not great for the road, but great for the track - it stops you like an iron bar through the front wheel :shock:

I asked the seller yesterday about what he had fitted with these brakes -

he said the nc30 m/c was adequate used to dive under braking a bit, he suggested upping the preload. As they work fine with the current m/c I may well wait until a cheap rsv m/c comes up. 82 quid is the cheapest I can find at the moment.

Any more advice is always welcome and appreciated.
