Racetorx Thumb Brake With Brembo Master Cylinder

Made from T6 billet aluminum, Hard anodized in either silver or black, Hardware including pivot pins and pushrods are made from Ti 6Al-4V Titanium. The thumbscrew provides a detent ball for precision and a 13mm Brembo master cylinder for reliability and perfect thumb pressure with the thumb lever providing a knurled finish for grip. Handlebar fitment is the standard 22mm which 95% of bars are and in the coming months, other mounting options will come available. This wonderful kit provides 4 points of movement to give you the best position to suit you! Comes complete with our GP reservoir tube kit in a color of your choice. To complete the kit you can either go directly to your rear caliper or you can have the rear foot master cylinder in conjunction. You can order specific lengths of braided lines from either Venhill or Goodridge. If you decide to have the rear foot pedal usable in conjunction you'll need to fit a "Junction Valve" to your rear master cylinder which feeds into the reservoir port. This is a very simple layout and we are happy to assist where we can.
 
THE THUMB BRAKE KIT IS UNIVERSAL TO ALL BIKES.

When using your foot in a road/race boot or a motocross boot you can not gauge pressure, with your thumb you can gauge the pressure through the paddle, this means more control breaking in a corner on a race track, angle of the bike in the air on a motocross track, on a trails bike in a technical route and even wheelie control on a stunt bike. 
A lot of people ask, "What is a thumb brake?"
It’s a left thumb-operated rear brake, Thumb brakes are a great addition to any motorcycle, especially on a race track. The thumb brake provides more control simultaneously when braking and leaning into corners. They are also great to help with wheelie control and stunt riding.
 
Thumb brakes are great additions for any motorcycle from a 300bhp MotoGP bike to a 50bhp 450cc Supermoto or a Motorcross bike and trails for technical routes.
 
The Australian 500cc world champion legend “Michael Doohan“ was the start of the thumb brake when he seriously injured his right leg so switched to a handlebar-mounted thumb-operated brake. Doohan then in the 90’s won several championship races with the use of the thumb brake, It has been a benefit ever since other racers noticed the benefits of the thumb brake and now it's one of the most used aftermarket rear braking kits on the market.
