Yeah but if I had such great weather and such great country when would I get my tinkering done ...?
Don't know if it helps but I have a similar brembo MC on my commando this is a 12mm unit it came off of a burnt out scooter I found in a river ,I think it was a gilera?Nigel, is that a Brembo PS12 Master cylinder?
Genuine or copy?
And do you know what the ratio is with that Brembo caliper?
Or the piston sizes, looks like they are different sizes for each pair though!

Wonder why Norton went to all the expense of re designing the yokes for the 850 frame when the could have stuck with parelell yokes as you have done?
I just bought a PS12 of the older round reservoir style, to run with an AP Lockheed CP2696, gives a ratio of around 23 instead of the 17 I have with a 14mm master cylinder.
But I also need master cylinders for two other bikes with the same calipers. These are later bikes and can run with the style you have.
The AN 13mm Master runs with I think the original 44mm Lockheed caliper, again a ratio of about 23. Trying to understand how this works out for people in terms of feel.
I used to think the 17 ratio, with the 14mm was fine, but I am not stopping as quick as I want at the moment, at Gedinne I even used the rear!
The issue may be that I am going faster!, but I am inclined to think it has more to do with muscle loss at coming 65!
Others might disagree, however I believe that increasing the trail with the 27 degree rake, SNIP...
