Been working hard testing and making sure we bring only the finest components to you folks. You see, we might be a bit slow on the R&D - but it pays off in the end for you fine XS650 gearheads :bike:

Straight from the Blog:

YES! We've tested and used a TON of master cylinders on all of our various builds, and these were such a favorite that we've decided to bring them directly to you folks!

HHB Slimline Brake Master Cylinder Specs:

12.9mm Bore
6" Long Lever
Front View Level Window
Mirror Mount
Dot 3 / Dot 4 Compatible
7/8" Bar Mount
Comes with New Banjo Fitting
Twin Post Brake Switch (hidden under the lever, very clean)

You can now ditch that ugly OEM master cylinder on your XS650 (or most any other bike with 7/8" bars, we've had great luck with the master cylinder on almost all vintage Japanese bikes with a single caliper) and clean up the bars on your vintage restomod, cafe, brat, chopper, etc... With a 6" long lever, it's short enough for even the narrowest bars while still putting the clamp on that front brake. And brakes are smart, so why not get smart with a good looking and slim new master cylinder for your old bike. It probably needs a new one anyhow if its original.

Whats it look like you say? Well, here are a few shots...

AND, Dan from Pandemonium and I have both confirmed it - this master cylinder works excellently with the Pandemonium Brembo Brake Conversion. We installed one on Tevan's Resto-Mod cafe' last night and it is night and day difference in stopping power.. :bike:
 
I have been kicking around the idea of getting a hold of Dan(damonium) and getting a brembo kit.

Hugh, the transmission and gear will be on its way tomorrow. I hope you can fix Mikesxs oops. No rush on it, look closely in the box,sorry it took so long. Call me when you get it and let me know what you think. You have helped me out more then I could imagine. Glad to call such a good man a friend.

Can anyone recommend a matching clutch perch/lever to suit this? Thanks.

We are working on finding a nice match - but for now we've been using a Clutch Handle from Pandemonium Customs that works really well. Plus, Dan is a super nice dude to do business with... :thumbsup:
 
Had to chime in about these. I bought one of Hugh's "blemished" master cylinders and it is awesome! I have no clue why it was a blem as it looks stellar. If you're on the fence about picking one of these up, don't hesitate as they'll look great on any build. I'm mounting mine on a set of TC Bros lane splitter bars. Thanks Hugh!
