Lannis:

Get yourself a 13-mm Brembo rectangular master cylinder with dogleg
lever. Much easier to reach. MUCH better braking. Cheap, too. Then, put
an SS line on and EBC FA18HH pads in the caliper. Say Aaaahhh!. Use a
12-mm m/c if you have a single disc.

I can't even reach my stock horn button without letting

Cam -

I've got the same bike and very soon decided that I couldn't live like
that. I had to take my hand off the grip to reach the horn, or the
turn
signals, or the high beam. It was just downright dangerous, so I
replaced the switches with a set identical to my Centauro that put them
all under my left thumb very nicely.

Now if only I could find a replacement lever from the front brake that
didn't require me to slide my hand almost off the throttle to get my
fingers around it....
