Will a Brembo Clutch master cylinder work on zx14r?
03/18/19 2:26 AM

https://www.gothamcycles.com/ducati-oem-brembo-titanium-radial-clutch-master-cylinder-with-black-lever.html


Im new to the forum and make videos on youtube. I want to say hello and seek some help.

I have a 2016 zx14r SE with the brembo Break master cylinder. loving it however i have the Nissin clutch and wanted to upgrade(match) the other side as well.

The pics and link provided looks like a direct match to the break cylinder. will this work on my bike?

thanks in advance and if it does i will have a DIY video logging the install.

Edit:

This clutch looks exactly like my breaK MASTER CYLINDER. so my hope is that i can get in painted black and complete my front side.

I'll assume yes for now. Depends on said piston volume. Worse that could happen are twofold:
1. Pumps up and does not reach grip, but has full throw at the slave cylinder.
2. Pumps up, but does not have full throw when touching the grip, meaning, grinds in gear and lunges forward with the clutch pack still dragging and not fully disengaged. Set front wheel sturdy on wall, car tire, tree trunk, etc. That or have quick reflexes at the kill switch. Aim bike so you have a lot of room if it takes off without said bracing tactics.

My guess is the clutch master should work fine.

According to what I could find in a brief search, yes that looks like your baby. Same for ZX-12 and some years ZX-10.

I would consult a supplier. You may get something in a Brembo that you like more like clutch engagement in less throw/more throw. The RCS19 is adjustable but I would be curious what the race equivalent is. The ad says the RCS19 is for street.

HEY Predator!! It's you! I have followed your videos in the last year or two.

If it were me, I would just rattle can that MC with Krylon Fusion satin indoor outdoor black. Matches the color of the stock mirrors, I'm sure it would work well for the MCs. Just be very careful not to get any clutch fluid spills on it for a year.

There ya go! Looks great. I rattle canned a sprocket and polished the fresh paint with my fingertips and some 3M Scratch and Swirl Remover. That fresh paint is delicate. I don't think I would bother with polishing that MC since it has a cast finish anyway but DO be careful with the clutch fluid. My sprocket had a hard cured surface after a year but I had to be very careful with chain cleaning until that time.

I think the ducati master is probably a 16mm master. Most people run a 19mm on the busa and zx14..

So did you ever determine what size master you bought? How does it feel compared to stock?
