The problem is the brake switch is not compatible with the RCS. Due to the cruise control cancel implemented into the brake switch, the whole thing gets very messy. I've tried everything from external relays to brembo brake switches but essentially if you cannot get a mechanical switch going with outputs just like the stock switch, you are very limited in MC upgrades (R1 master is plug and play).
Those calipers are sweet though. I've tried my buddy's stock superduke setup and it is substantially better than my setup- R1 MC, stainless lines, sintered pads. May try R1 calipers since you mentioned they fit! Hmmmm..

I'm pretty sure the R1 calipers are the same as ours but the R1M calipers are different. Made from AL I believe and take heat away better, but I don't we are going to get the SuperDuke level without some serious Brembo intervention. I might still pull the trigger on the Master and have a look at it, Im an EE by trade so I might be able to cook something up, If I do I will be sure to share. ~Pete |

I noticed also that the front calipers seem to be similar to the fz09. Even the R1S have different calipers. |

Is there any benefit to the R1/R1S calipers over the ones on the FZ10? They look identical except for the piston covers.
The OEM brakes on the R1M are also stated to be Advics 4-piston...are they the same as R1/R1S just in a different color?

Usually, the R1 calipers will have aluminum pistons, whereas the more "budget" derivatives will have steel pistons. The only way to know for sure is to cross reference the piston part numbers in the parts fiche.
