A decent photo of a standard brembo calliper from an rsv/falco/tuono and a photo of a 4 pad calliper off the tuono r / rsvr
Must show the difference between the brake lines....
(am away from the bike and need to order some new lines...)
Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

And Dave, do the lines locate in the under recesses with that extra 20mm?

Indeed - only one colour matches your hat.

Don't matter what colour you paint your banjo, it'll still sound the same.
