Yup, no probs with it at all tbh, it just fits. I can't remember if I ever had it fitted with the GSXR clipons, but I did definately have the R6 one fitted with them and it's more or less the same size and shape.

If your banjo bolt is too long just cut it down. The seal is not made by the thread or the seat of the bolt. The seal is with the copper washers. But I would suggest new washers, they are pence.

Damn they look good, those Brembo m/c's.

I opted for a K4 Gsxr one, which didn't have any clearance issues and the connectors for the brake switch just plugged in.

Not sure yet of any advantages/disadvantages as the roads have been too wet for any heroic braking.

That's not the regular one like I say, but the dimensions are about the same, with different construction. Is it the lever that's too long for you, or are you having trouble wedging it all on the clipon? Pazzo do a very nice stubby lever which works brilliantly, and it's not that expensive, but I'm using a standard lever now since this happened:



and though it's long, it works fine.

Hmm. I've never heard of that being a problem to be honest, the LSL's a wee bit longer tha the GSXR ones (which are a wee bit shorter than SV ones I believe) but you can see I had loads of space spare. Now, on the clutch side I ran out of clipon now I think of it, and ended up spacing the bar end out by a few mm. You could do the same if need be I suppose, I just used a few 10mm M6 washers.
