F042 Build #9

Next up was to ensure that our nicely fitted Brembo mono-block calipers were connected with brake lines and master cylinders. We choose light weight black lines with aluminum fittings and of course titanium banjo bolts.

The front brake system was specced out with Brembo full floating brake calipers and a RCS master cylinder. Witht he size and weight of the F042, stopping should be a breeze. Check out the front brake pressure sensor, yet another item we utilized in our data logging package that will enable us to pinpoint when the brakes are applied and with how much force. To cap off the left handlebar we installed a Ducati Corse quick turn race throttle tube and housing with custom made throttle cables.

The rear brake system is equally impressive as the front, with a Galfer lightweight rotor and Brembo racing caliper outfitted with titanium hardware. The master cylinder has been upgraded to a 13mm Brembo racing pump outfitted with a Ducati Corse spring setup that enables the pilot to have better feel of the brake. Take note of the custom swingarm bobbins we machined for the rear stand.
