need help to ID MC

Peculiar that the lid doesn't have "YAMAHA" on it...Most of my Yamahas do.

very interesting. I think i am going to give up on it and find a FJR one with a correct year. Very strange. At least i have 2 blue spot calipers that look to be in great shape. so no complaints

Of the 3 I have (one on the Fazer 600, one on the Fazer 1000/FZ1 and the 16mm one supposedly from a Fazer 1000/FZ1 on my FJ 1200), none have YAMAHA on them, but all 3 have NISSIN on them !

My FZ1 MC does not say Yamaha on it. I just took it for a ride.  Forgot to take a picture.

2006 or later fz1 or fjr1300 made by brembo same as mine which was supposedly from a 2014 non abs fjr

Sell the 16mm m/c
Get the 14mm m/c

I found an FJR one from a 2006. It should arrive this weekend.

I don't see how I can sell the 16mm one when I have no idea what it came from.

I agree with pat it needs to be the 14mm nissin the 16mm brembo gives a firm lever pull that lacks feel the 14mm will provide better feel with a 2 finger pull and better feedback

I disagree about the lack of feel, yes the standard FJ 5/8 inch feels wooden and needs a firm four finger pull but the FJR 16mm I have fitted has a soft easy two finger pull to it. I look at it this way, if it was deemed good enough for the heavier FJR then it's good enough for the FJ, FJR's were never known for having weak brakes.

Other than the adjustable lever and the three terminal stop switch on the FJR, the FJ and FJR axial m/c's are both essentially the same and share the same bore diameter.  5/8" = 16mm
Although, certain year FJR's used a 15mm m/c

Bonesy you're in for a treat if you try a smaller 14mm m/c

With the adjustable lever set to suit me, I've gotten quite used to just using one (index) finger braking on the road. Plenty of feel, control and power.

On track I always used 2 finger front braking on my RSV with its Brembo's and haven't had my FJ on the track since it's new brakes, but would still go with 2 finger braking because the heavier braking necessary.

Only two terminals for the brake light switch on my master Pat. I am aware the bore size between standard and my FJR 16mm are the same, but for whatever reason the FJR master has a much better feel to it. Pull the lever on the standard one and it goes so far then feels rock hard, the FJR has a soft feel to the lever and has better modulation. Early models started with 14mm masters but then got bigger. Mine is off an ABS model but can't see why that would make any difference, either way I'm happy with its performance and will stick with it.
