      Hi all am wanting to put 2 discs on the front of my 2016 gtr 125 . Canย  anyone recommend a front master cylinder as the one on the 125 doesn’t work on 2 callipers thanks.

      It will work but you need the splitter that fits on the lower yoke

      Simon is correct as some later 125cc have master cylinders robbed from 250 Naked. They will push 2 discs just fine.

      However, please look under the master cylinder and tell us if it says 1/2 or 3/4 or 5/8 . its in big engraved writing.

      I do have the splitter on ebay FYi to split lines in to 2 calipers ๐Ÿ™‚

      The big NO-NO in brakes is using chinese cylinders. They will not beat TCTC.

      Otherwise , if you’re serious an OEM CBR 600 (Nissin Japan) will work but total overkill for a 125 if i am honest. I’ve never had to change the TCTC cylinders for years, they work good for the most part. The calipers themselves are good as long as the pistons and pins etc are stainless ๐Ÿ™‚

      So that’s OK for the pipes you have for sale on ebay.

      Where can I get a front master cylinder rebuild kit if they do one thanks.

      Yes, they fit the master cylinder and the calipers, we will dispatch soon, keep in mind of delays due to current RM strikes.

      They don’t exist anymore but i hope it doesn’t come to that if it works , usually its the calipers that need rebuilding in most cases.

      The best way to slow down a slow 125 is put more weight on the front wheel!

      single disc bikes have a small front master cylinder. double disc bikes have almost double-sized front master cylinder.
