[Ducati] Thoughts on radial master cylinders

[Don Hill]

If you're talking about the "GP" master cylinder (as opposed to the one that comes on the 749/999 bikes) then there are two ways to brake light switch it. Yoyodyne (and others) sell a micro switch setup (quite pricy) or there are banjo pressure switches. The banjo that the brake line mounts to on the GP master cylinder is on the bottom of the master cylinder and there is a separate bleeder on the top. No problem. Some complain that the pressure activated switches are too slow in their response but I've been using one for several years with no complaints.

  I am thinking about upgrading to a radial master. I see the forged Brembo doesn't utilize a brake switch. There is an option of using a banjo switch, but I don't see how it can be bled. Anyone have experience with this?
