    Just a bit of advice Steve , just remembered , I had to put 2 copper washers between the lines on the banjo , other wise you won't be able to nip it up properly , will leave them loose when banjo is tight up
    That was the case with mine any way ????

    Thanks for that Bob. Just tried it with 3 washers and sure enough, they are nothing like tight. Bit dodgy that!

    Fitting the RCS tonight.
    Got it mounted and connected the hoses (Bobmg was spot on with the 4 washer needed - did you do this Jamie?).
    the hose from the res to the MC is too loose a fit on the MC connection.
    I will have to get some more.
    Also need to buy a couple of male spades for the brake switch connection too.
    Got the bracket made today. Just need to apply the bends in the right places once i have the res pipe.

    Regarding the clutch i fitted the other night - anyone else who has this setup got an issue with the clutch cable hitting the speedo when turning the bars to the left?

    Here it is in the box.....

    Yes I used 4 washers Steve otherwise it will not nip up :(

    Glad you got the bracket made, shame the tube is to big :( thats why I bought the kit as I like to be able to fit without modifying to much, but you seem at ease with fabricating the kit yourself :)

    AND how come you got stickers.... I did not get stickers !!!!

    aaah just as i thought. i did ask if the stock reservoir tube fits the RCS. thought it might be too big. will have to get some too when i order mine.

    thanks for the updates

    Got the pipe sorted today and all is fitted.
    I must say I am not happy with the banjo fit. Looking at the depth of the threaded hole, i am sure the banjo is bottoming out even with 4 washers on.
    I gave it a good tighten and put a cable tie round the lever to apply pressure. After an hour or so, some fluid had leaked.
    I have managed to tighten it up a bit more, but i am not convinced there is much more pressure on the joints.
    I may buy a HEL double banjo off Jonny and see if this is better.

    A couple of photos fitted..........

    I bought a pro bolt racing double banjo, which I have not fitted as I tried with that first then the brembo, then with 4 washers and all was good :) could send it to you if you want or you could just bang in one more washer two top one midd two bottom ?

    Bracket looks great, those dimensions where ok I hope ;)
