I've got full floaters on my s2r 800 dark that the PO had installed.  I have a broken brake lever that I need replaced and I don't know what part I need since its not stock.  At least I don't think its stock.  Can you guys let me know what I've got?  BTW, my brakes work great.

Looks like a radial master from 749/999.

Older SBK have the round separate reservoirs.

That does indeed look like a 749/999 radial master.

BTW, I think those rotors are a bit rare and worth some money.

What's special about those calipers?  To me they look like normal 40mm mount 2-pad 4 piston calipers. 

And +1 one more for the 749/999 radial masters.   

But yeah, none of that break set up is stock

The calipers are the old single pin variety.

sounds like I scored on the brakes, only thing is they are a little twitchy.  If I lay on them to hard too fast, the front end locks up fairly easily.

Those are 'finesse' brakes  Wink

Without knowing what sort of pads are in there, I'm just guessing here - but a less aggressive pad might be more to your liking.  The former owner might have something like sintered pads that have a lot of initial bite

I have the same cast iron rotors on my bike and I am runnnig Ferodo Platinum organic pads as opposed to the sintered pads. I get more feel and the organic pad will help the rotor last longer. My .02 cents. Smiley

I ran Ferodo Platinums on my iron discs with basically the same calipers.

Moderate initial bite, but plenty of power.

Have another  waytogo  The 65mm to 40mm adapters should have made you look twice.. but if you had the T-googles on then you might have just seen 4 calipers.
