Product Overview
DAYTONA/NISSIN "RETRO" BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER, BLACK / SILVER LEVER, 5/8 (15.9mm) - #74751.
For those looking to enhance their vintage motorcycle's braking performance or custom build while preserving classic aesthetics, the Nissin sloping master cylinder is an ideal choice when installing clip on bars (or alternatively) low angled bars such as clubman bars due to the angled tank. Therefore, it is best used on bars with an angle of 10°-15° degrees drop. Also, the rear of the tank area has a recess that clears some clip on bar clamps (such as our Daytona Omega adjustable bars).
Its design not only complements vintage & custom bikes alike, but also provides modern braking efficiency. Nissin master cylinders are known for their unparalleled reliability and craftsmanship, embodying the renowned Japanese engineering standards.
Whether you're embarking on a vintage restoration project or customizing a bike to reflect the iconic styles of the 70s and 80s, this master cylinder promises to deliver both form and function. Its seamless integration and easy availability of spare parts make it a practical addition to any motorcycle enthusiast's ride.
There are a choice of spare parts to repair or overhaul, inclduing levers. From the standard non-adjustable type lever to the versatile adjustable options, this ensures you can tailor your bike's controls to your exact preferences, without compromising on the authentic retro look.
