Re: Harris Rearsets...
I'm pretty sure the pitch of the banjo bolt (and therefore the pressure switch bolt) for the rear master cylinder on the TRX is the same as the pitch for the standard front brake banjo bolts, so be careful buying a 'brembo specific' one, I'd go for a TRX specific one.

Re: Harris Rearsets...
Can no kind members put a thread guage across any spare banjo bolts they might have, it would clear all this post hockey up?
I don`t have one to hand they are on the bike!

Re: Harris Rearsets...

, so you use the same bolt
. got mine from a moto x shop, they use them when they put lights on moto x bikes. have attached a pic, its the small black thing on top the mastercylinder.

Thanks in advance again mate

Re: Harris Rearsets...



Bracket is held on by the hanger, with short bolt into that, spring is held onto a long bolt into the brake pedal. Hope you can see from the above pics, and that this may help you.

Cheers for that.

Now they`re very nice and would replace my current Mikuni set up nicely on my MuZ Skorpion, 1,500 quid though!

Well as long as it works with brake pedal pressure that doesn`t matter, brake fluid is after all similar to a light oil.

Re: Harris Rearsets...
Welll if you weren't sure Cobba is a legend
hopefully can get phone photos up then can see what the deal was. Got gear shift on okay, rear brake not so easy. Didn't line up end of brake pedal and the rear master cylinder.

Re: Harris Rearsets...
You need an M8 female rose joint (see the picture Harris sent you) you should be able to pick one up for about £3
The rose joint will bridge the gap left after removing the clevice arrangement from your master cylinder
