Evening all,
Thought I'd treat myself to a set of Harris performance brake and clutch levers and after watching them on eBay after a few weeks the price dropped so I had them. Before buying I did ask if they would fit my gen 2 Tuono (2009) and he said it will as long as they are brembo master cylinders, which they are. Arrived today and you can guess what I'm going to say. They don't bloody fit! Nowhere near. Unless I'm being a moron and feel free to point this possibility out but am I wrong or are these wrong fitment?

Brembo make radial and axial mc types. The tuono uses axial and they have probably sent u radial levers. Does the advert say which type they are ?

Cheers spoonz that makes sense, it doesn't say no, I did say to the seller exactly which model mine was and he told me they would fit. Looks like I'll have to send them back or open a case if he is an arse. Sent him a pic and he just said 'pass, can't tell, thanks' helpful!!

Yep they are radial fitment and you need axial.

I always thought it strange the Tuono had radial calipers but kept the older axial masters, unlike the factory model. Guess they were running out of ways to justify the extra expenditure. |

Thanks very much for your help fellas, I'm going to see if I can return them, I could swap but it's just not worth it will keep my eye out for another set of them or just get them from Harris direct as I much prefer the little winding adjuster on the front rather than the numbered toggle on the top
