Rear break slave cylinder mount? Seen some awkward hose routing.
Do you have to mover the rear break master cylinder up and out of the way?

I believe the gear change side is a lot simpler.

They didn't come with a brake light switch, it's hydraulic and I've had to order one from ebay £7.65

As Buzzbomb says the rear hose is tight and will need changing, I was wondering by how much, now I know (thank you) Need to find somewhere to get one from now.

Yes, you have to move the master cyclinder but it's very straight forward, two bolts.

The whole job took about an hour, but I'll be revisiting some of the fasteners as they didn't come with any lock washers.

As for quality, if I'd paid £675 for Sato ones I'd probably have kept them in the box and just looked at them, but these for the price are exceptional, although the rose joints look a bit fragile.

Also, the wonderful Royal Mail wouldn't deliver them as they wanted me to pay an £8.00 "Handling Fee" +VAT of course...
