Front brake on an Srad 600. What is the best way to upgrade it with out spending a fortune???

I read somewhere the 4 pots are fine but the MC is rubbish......

he said not spend a fortune Andy good upgrade though. to start with id fit some braided lines the ones that go straight to each calliper flush some good fuid through em and fit some scintered pads i find bendix mrr very good should improve em but after that u will have to spend the money to make em any better than that

Stupid I used a K4 radial MC, £45 off Ebay, bolted straight up, but as said before, you'd need an inline hydraulic pressure switch for the brake light. Easy job. 200% transformation.

Even the pitch of the thread is the same for the banjo bolts

I have braided now but its down and over not 2 lines. but looking at it there the same length so that may be easily altered.

I might look at a K4 MC then... as to the switch is there is a one on the K4 i can use? any info on how to wire it up....
