Loved by racers worldwide, the Accossato 16x18 radial brake master cylinder for sportbikes features a forged aluminum cylinder which is stronger and lighter than stock cast units for maximum reliability. The 16 mm piston is a perfect option for motorcycles with a single disc brake rotor setup. Accossato has been producing Italian made sportbike components for original and aftermarket use since 1969.
Accossato produces race quality master cylinders and braking components using a 100% quality-control process mandating all core components to be inspected under a microscope before assembly, pressure calibrated, and vacuum tested upon final assembly.
- Fixed / folding lever: 16 mm x 18 mm.
- Material: Pressure forged aluminum.
- Piston: 16 mm.
- Disc application: Single.

- The short length lever is a popular choice for riders who have smaller hands or wish for the lever to be accessed easily towards the center of the bike and for stunt riding.
- The standard length RST lever features an anti-drag inlet hole machined into the lever end for the passage of air at high speed; this is a popular choice for track and race riders.
- Exclusive three (3) year limited U.S.A. warranty.
Items required to complete installation:
- Accossato suggests using the Accossato 30 ml Brake Reservoir Mounting Kit (P/N ACC-KITVG; sold separately) as it includes a reservoir, bracket, hardware and tubing.
- The 16x18 includes a single hole banjo bolt with two copper washers. This will work if you have one brake line coming off the master cylinder. If you only have a two line off the master you will need a M10x1.0 Double Hole Banjo Bolt (P/N ACC-MS2362; sold separately).
- If you wish to retain brake light functionality you will require a Single Hole Inline Brake Light Pressure Switch Banjo Bolt (P/N ACC-ID001; sold separately).
- If you intend to use your stock reservoir you will require a length of 6 mm Tygon 2375 Tubing and 2-3/8" Spring Clamps (all sold separately).
- Dot 4 brake fluid will be needed. Accossato suggests replacing all of the fluid in the system when you install the master. Do NOT use Dot 5.1.
