Yep easy get it for that, just make sure you order the double banjo (with pressure switch if needed) & remind them I orderd a double & they sent me a single ... must be something in the Canadian water

I just did a little research not that I don't trust you Rob. I just wanted to know if I was saving much money getting the Master Cyl from Canadiiiaaa!!
I called Gowanloch Ducati as they are stockists and they quoted me $675 for just the 18 x 20 Master Cyl alone!!
So if anyone else reads this again, go the Canadian route for your Brembo needs. I did an online estimate including shipping and it came to $411AUD.
Thanks again Rob,
Troy

$411 im sure mine was just over $300 landed but the paperwork is with my accountant so I cant check
Troy there are a few different types of Brembo Radial MC's & it could be that gowies has the more expensive one's
Mine is Cast & I think the GP race ones are Billet but dont quote me on it
I looked at about 4-5 sites before ordering from Canada there was also one place in the states that was cheeper but looked suss so Canada it was

... it definently pays to shop around

Yep i got the brembo mater cylinder last year. Best thing i have ever done, the lever just doesnt fade at all anymore. I was able to use the standard resivior as the hose i got just went over the fitting on it. Must have been lucky i guess.

Well after finaly getting a chance to test out the new MC the verdict is...... Brilliant! there was no fade or lever pulling back to the bar so Im sold
+ now using blue dot 4 brake fluid from Bursons $7.00 for 500ml that will be changed twice a year

great value!
